Analysis of O little plum tree in the garden, you're
Lesbia Harford 1891 (Brighton) – 1927 (Australia)
O little plum tree in the garden, you're
Aflower again,
With memories of a million springs and my
Brief years of pain.
O little tree, you have the power to find
Your youth again,
Grow young, while I grow old in tenderness
And wise in pain.
