At the time of the year when the young hickory leaves stand like little green banners Above their recurved, brown sheathings, And the inch-long leaves of the white oak are the color of ripe peach seeds, The dogwood makes herself beautiful. She is not tall, like the oak tree, But she is tall enough to be graceful. Her body is slim and delicately veined, And gray as old, scarred silver. About her slender shoulders and upon her poised, outstretched arms Are webbed scarf upon scarf of great, white blossoms, Cool and fragrantless. Her beauty is the wistful loveliness of a young girl waiting for her first lover, Who never comes. The dogwood loses her bloom, And midsummer brings her no fulfillment of spring promise. Her leafage is scant and unlovely; no birds nest in her branches. Can it be that she is lonely? But when the dogwood is grown old with the autumn Beauty returns to her. Not the vivid splendor of the matronly hickories, Rustling with lemon-yellow plumes, Or the bronze magnificence of the white oaks: But in her body there is still the slenderness of youth; Her few, faintly fluttering leaves are like fragile pat- terns cut from gold brocade; And in her pointed fingers she holds a broken rosary of pale vermilion beads. What April hopes lie hidden in these scarlet husks! —Lily Peter, ' 27. JS
