SHEPHERDST0WN JEFFERSON COUNTY, WEST VIRGINIA. SATURDAY
PRIL.

April has searched the winter land
And found her petted flowers again
She kissed them to unfold their leaves,
She coaxed them with sun and rain,
And filled the grass with green content,
And made the weeds and clover vain.
Her fairies climb the naked trees
And set green caps on every stalk
Her primroses peep bashfully
From borders of the garden walk
And in the reddening maple tops
Her blackbird gossips sit and talk.
She greets the patient evergreehs,
She gets store of ancient gold,
Gives taSselled presents to the breeze,
And teaches rivers songs of old
Then shakes the trees with stolen March winds
And laughs to hear the cuckoo scold
Sometimes to fret the sober sun,
She pulls the clouds across her face
But finds a snow drift in the wood,
Grows meek again and prays his grace
Waits till the last white wreath is gone,
And drops arbutus in the place.
Her croCuses and voets
Give all the world gay GOOD year ~
Tall irses grow tired Of green,
And get themselves a purple gear;
And tiny buds that be asleep
On hill and field her summons hear.
She rocks the saucy meadow cups;
The sunsets heart anew she dies
She fills the dusk Of deepest woods
With vague sweet sunshine and surprise,
And wakes the periwinkles up
To watch her with their wide, blue eyes.
At last she deems her work is done,
And finds willow rocking chair,
Dons spectacles of apple buds,
Kerchief and cap of almonds rare,
And sits very grandmother,
Shifting her sunshine-needles there.
And when she sees the deeper sun
That ushers in the happy May,
She signs to think her time is past,
And weeps because she cannot stay,
And leaves her tears upon the grass,
And turns her face, and gldes away.
