GENTIAN

      The little clump of fringed gentians stood alone,
the purple blossoms at the tops of straight stems
that grew up towards the sunlight from the damp
earth and they're the last of the season and grow
all alone, not caring whether anyone sees them
or not and just before snows , there came purple
that ravished all the hill ; and summer hid her
forehead , and mockery was still.

                                                        
                                                        Gentian Trumpet Shaped Flowers
