Love

Though the Latin Name for ‘Primrose’ is primula vulgaris, its vernacular name (common name) Primrose, is derived from Latin prima rosa and literally means first rose of the year.
This poem celebrating them, is appropriate at Easter time.
"Your God still walks in Eden, between the ancient trees, Where Youth and Love go wading through pools of primroses. And this is the sign we bring you, before the darkness fall, That Spring is risen, is risen again, That Life is risen, is risen again, That Love is risen, is risen again, and Love is Lord of all."

— Alfred Noyes
