The First Rose Of Summer






Oh! why, lovely stranger! thus early in bloom,

Art thou here to assure us that summer is come?

The primrose and harebell appear with the spring,

But tidings of summer young roses bring.





Welcome, Summer!



Excerpt from the poem,
"The First Rose Of Summer"
By Robert Gilfillan
(1798-1850)
Scottish poet and songwriter
