Morning-Glory (Ipomœa)
Wondrous interlacement!
Holding fast to threads by green and silky rings,
With the dawn it spreads its white and purple wings;
Generous in its bloom, and sheltering while it clings,
Sturdy morning-glory.
Helen Hunt Jackson—Morning-Glory.
The morning-glory’s blossoming
Will soon be coming round
We see their rows of heart-shaped leaves
Upspringing from the ground.
Maria White Lowell—Morning-Glory.
