More Violets

Excerpt from More Violets

These poems are offered to the public in the hope that those to whom the author is now a stranger may some day become her friends. The above was the inscription on the Author's first book, violets. Its generous acceptance by the public and the kindly criticisms of the Press have emboldened her to hope that more violets will meet with the same kindness and be the means of bringing her many loving thoughts from her unknown friends; for there is an unseen bond of friendship between all true lovers of Nature.
