Flower Fairies of the Spring
by Cicely Mary Barker (Illustrator)
The Song of The Primrose Fairy
The Primrose opens wide in spring;
Her scent is sweet and good-
It smells of every happy thing
In sunny lane and wood.
I have not half the skill to sing
And praise her as I should.
She's dear to folk throughout the land;
In her is nothing mean-
She freely spreads on every hand
Her petals pale and clean.
And though she's neither proud nor grand,
She is the Country Queen.
