BY MARGARET WESTOBY, AGE 13(SILVER BADGE) IN A ROSE GARDEN BY FRANCES MALLORY (AGE 15) (Honor Member)I opened up a casket small. A faded fan there met my sight,And to my bended head arose A fragrance exquisite.

BY MARGARET WESTOBY, AGE 13(SILVER BADGE) IN A ROSE GARDEN BY FRANCES MALLORY (AGE 15) (Honor Member)I opened up a casket small. A faded fan there met my sight,And to my bended head arose A fragrance exquisite. As I stood there, my soul was borne Through ages past, so far away;I wandered in a garden fair At dusky twilight, close of air was freshly damp and warm; The insects buzzed about my head;An odor sweet and heavy rose From every flower-bed. • From roses lifting up their heads To catch the evening dew—Sweet roses, shining through the dusk With every lovely hue:Pink as the white as snow, A deep blood-red, and yellow-gold— The perfume of those flowers fairCame from that garden old. From out my dream I slowly came, Back from that distant dozen petals from a rose Were resting in my hand.
