Foxgloves

by

Listen in the reader

Pink-purple foxgloves Leaning to the breeze-- And all the sweet of Devon Sweeps back across the seas:

The deep coombs of Devon Where the tiny hamlets nest, The golden sea of Devon That glimmers toward the west:

The thatched roofs of Devon To which the soft skies bend-- Now the dear God keep Devon The same to His world’s end!
