In January the spirit Dreams, 
In February weaves a Rainbow, 
And 
And 
And 
And 
And 
And 
And 
And 
And 
And 
n March smiles through Rains, 
n April is clad in white and Green, 
n May is the Youth of the World, 
n June is a Glory, 
n July is in two Worlds, 
n August is a Color, 
n September dreams of Beauty, 
n October Sighs, 
n November Wearieth, 
n December Sleeps. 
— Fiona Macleod. 
New hope stirs with the flood of spring catalogues, and visions 
of a fairer, gayer garden arise. The summer garden may grow and 
bloom acceptably, but the winter garden is always perfect. In it is 
no place for last year's failures. Complete faith in seedsmen, self and 
soils animates the most pessimistic.
