Great pines that watch the river 90

Firm-rooted near its cub and now,
Bowing their beads to winds at pay,
Stsop2-iinbed and proud, they 81" ~

And watch the mountains far away,
And watch tie miles of farming land,
And hear the church bells to,iing sio"'
They see the men in distant fields
Follow the burrows OF the plow;
They count the loads the harvest yields,
And fipht the storms with every bouRb,
Beating the wild winds back again
The 1uriI sunshine cheers them now;
They eager drink the warm spring ram.
Nor dread the spear the Lightning
yields.
HIGH in the branches clings the nest
The great birds build from year to
year:
And though they fly from east TO west,
Some instinct keeps this eyre dear
To their fierce hearts; and now thei'
eyes
Glare down at me with rage and fear
They stare a, me with wild surprise,
Where high in air they strong-wingeo

CompanionshIp of birds and treesl
The years have proved your friendship

You share each others memo les,
The rivers secret and its sonP,
And legends of the country side:
The eagles take their journeys long,
The great trees wait In noble pride
For messages from hills and seas.

In idleness of sumner days:
A singer that the world knows vol
To VOC again in boy hood strays;
Within the stiffness Of your shade
He rests where hickering sunlight
plays,
And sees the nests the eagles made,
And wonders at the distant bell.
His keen eyes watch the forest growth,
The rabbits fear. the thrush's flight;
He loiters gladly. nothing loath,
To be alone ut fall of night.
The woodland things around him taught
Their secrets in the evening LIGHT.
Whispering some wisdom to his thouRbi
Known to the pines and eagles both.
Was it birds who early told
Tho dreaming boy that he would win
A poets crown instead OF go!df
That he would fight y nations sin!
On eagle wings OF song would gam
A place that few might enter IN,
And keep his life without stain
Through many years, yet not grow old
And be shall DO what few men are.
Said all the pine trees, whispering low
His thought shall find an unseen star;
He shall our treasured legends know;
His words will give the way worn rest
Like this cool shade our branches
throw;
He, lifted like our lsftiest crest,
Shall watch his country near and far.
