- "These verses were written by Beatrice Crane when quite a child. Her youthful days were spent in a quaint, old-fashioned garden, which no longer exists. Living among her flowers, she was always busily and happily engaged in drawing, writing, or attending to her garden. From her verses it will be seen that each season, with its ever-changing beauties, was fully realised by the child's quick, artistic imagination."--Leaf [2]
