Analysis of In The Meadow - What In The Meadow?
Christina Georgina Rossetti 1830 (London) – 1894 (London)
In the meadow - what in the meadow?
Bluebells, buttercups, meadowsweet,
And fairy rings for the children's feet
In the meadow.
In the garden - what in the garden?
Jacob's-ladder and Solomon's-seal,
And Love-lies-bleeding beside All-heal
In the garden.
