Hellebore

"Hey Jude/Song by The Beatles ? 1968" -------------------------------------------- Blooming in snow, lifting the gloom She spells right both beauty and doom Tears of poor heartbroken shepherd Bright flower with sepals colored Hey Jude, you can't force her to bloom Not in pot or in greenhouse fume A sign for faith, love, hope, rebirth Alluring tough flower on earth

great juxtaposition of the Beatles song, with the blooming flower and the shepard. "You can't force her to bloom, not in pot or in greenhouse fume" ~ wonderful poem
