A Florida IdYI.
A day whose soft and tender air
Well may be hailed as June,s own gift,
A scene whose changing prospect fair
The gloom from saddened hearts may lift.
Through woods Of stately pine We pass
The air is fresh with healing balm;
The gray moss hangs in graceful mass
Scarce stirring in the restfu calm.
Before now blue lake CLEANS,
Mid orange groves, a jewel bright,
It flashes back the SUMS bright beams
Then sweetly fades and fades from sight.
Yet ere the heart its loss shall mourn,
New beauties greet our gladdened eyes;
New sapphires spring from unknown bourne
And smile on us with sweet surprise.
Lake Eustis sparkling in the sun.
And Oracle, lovely as her name,
Joanna, Woodland all have won
need from ever changing fame.
Yon azure deeps stretch clear and wide
Sweet Gertrude clothed in shining green;
Beyond the emerald divide
Lake Dora lies in fairy sheen;
And farther still, all happy light,
ApopkR hills rise view
scene of tender radiance bright
Forever old, forever new.
Florida sweet summer land.
Long may thy beauty WOO the sun,
And blessings from Gracious Hand
Pour on thee till earths day Is donel
Eustts Fla. Feb. "a. 1888.
