The gentian weaves her fringes

Item Information

Title:
The gentian weaves her fringes
First Line :
Frequently the woods are pink
First Line :
A sepal, petal, and a thorn
First Line :
Distrustful of the gentian
First Line :
Flees so the phantom meadow
First Line :
We lose - because we win
First Line :
All these my banners be
First Line :
To lose - if one can find again
First Line :
To him who keeps an orchis' heart
First Line :
I had a guinea golden
First Line :
There is a morn by men unseen
First Line :
As if I asked a common alms
First Line :
She slept beneath a tree
First Line :
The feet of people walking home
First Line :
It's all I have to bring today
First Line :
Morns like these - we parted
First Line :
So has a daisy vanished
First Line :
If those I loved were lost
First Line :
Adrift! A little boat adrift!
First Line :
Summer for thee, grant I may be
First Line :
When roses cease to bloom, sir
First Line :
Oh if remembering were forgetting
First Line :
On this wondrous sea - sailing silently
First Line :
Garlands for queens, it may be
First Line :
Nobody knows this little rose
