Here you will find the Poem Lenten Flowers of poet Kathleen Raine
Primrose, anemone, bluebell, moss Grow in the Kingdom of the Cross And the ash-tree's purple bud Dresses the spear that sheds his blood. With the thorns that pierce his brow Soft encircling petals grow For in each flower the secret lies Of the tree that crucifies. Garden by the water clear All must die who enter here!
