epidemium look like tiny spaceships

All the woodland path is broken
    By warm tints along the way
        And the low and sunny slope
When there comes the silent token
    Of an April day
        Blue hepatica!

I keep it staying at Home -
With a bobolink for a Chorister,
And an Orchard, for a Dome.
