Xenia Epigram - With A Mosaic "Forget Me Not"

With A Mosaic "Forget Me Not"

Accept and wear this constant flower,
Thus copied out by art.
It blooms in Nature but its hour,--
For ever in the heart.
Affections into habits grown,--
Lives fastened in one lot,--
The flower has strengthened into stone
We name "Forget me not."
