Here you will find the Poem The Flower By The Path of poet Augusta Davies Webster

The Flower By The Path

A FLOWER was growing alone,
Then alone and for ever alone: 
Some one came by,
Saw the flower how fair it had grown, 
Chose it, plucked it to die.

And what is a flower alone,
Then alone and for ever alone, 
Come no one by?
Why should a flower be fair for its own?
Choose it, pluck it to die.
