AN AMERICAN FOREST SPRING.

ny ALFRED h. STREET.
Now iiuttering breeze, now stormy blast,
Mild rain, then clustering snow,-
Winters stern lettering cold is passed,
But, sweet Spring, where art ihou'
The white cloud floats mid smiling blue,
The broad bright sunshine's golden hue
Bathes the still frozen earth
IT'S changed above black vapors roll,--
We turn from our expected stroll
And seek the blazing hearth
Hark-that sweet carol with delight
We leave the sitting room,-
The little blue-bird meets our sight,
Spring, glorious Spring has come
The south-wind's balm is in the air,
The melting snow-wreaths everywhere
And leaping of in showers
And Nature. in her Frightening looks,
Tells that her flowers and leaves are brooks
And birds will soon be ours.
A few soft sunny days have shone.
The air has lost its chill,
A bright green tinge succeeds the brown
Upon the southern hill.
OH to the woods---a pleasant scene
Here sprouts the fresh young wintergreen.
There swels messy mound
Though in the hollow, drifts are piled,
The wandering wind is sweet and mild,
Aud buds are bursting round.
Where its long rings uncurl the fern,
The violet, nesting low,
Casts back the white lid Of its urn,
Its purple streaks to show.
Beautiful blossom first to rise
And smile beneath Springs wakening skies,
The courier of the band
of coming howers,-what feelings sweet
Gush as the silyery gem we meet
Upon its slender wand
Warmer is each successive sky,
More soft the breezes pass
The naples gems Of crimson lie
Upon the thick green grass
The dogwood sheds its clusters white,
The birch has drapred its tassels slight,
Cowslips are round the rill {;
The thresher whistles In the glen,
Flutters round the warbling wren,
And swamps have voices shrill.
simultaneous burst Of leaves
Has clothed the forest now
A single days bright sunshine weaves
This vivid, gorgeous show.
Masses Of shade are cast beneath,
The flowers are spread in varied wreath.
Night brings its soft, sweet moon;
Morn wakes in mist, and twilight gray
Weeps IFS bright dew, and smiling May
Melts into blooming June
