Welcome Back, Saint Valentine!

Welcome Back, Saint Valentine!
A flowery Victorian-era Valentine's Day card.

The primroses are opening now,
The buds are green, on every bough,
The daisies spring beneath our feet,
The brown thrush pipes his carol sweet.
The birds begin to dream of nests,
Nature is stirring in their breasts,
And Love and Friendship both combine
To welcome back, Saint Valentine!
