Gods Miracle of WAY.

There came a message to the vine.
A whisper 10 the tree.
The blue-bird saw the secret sign
And merrlly sang he,
And like a silver string the brook
Trembled with music sweet
Enchanting notes in every nook
For echo 10 repeat.
A magic touch transformed the fields,
Grcener each hour they grew.
Until they shone like FURNISHED shields
All jeweled DER with dew.
Scattered upon the forest floor
A million bits of bloom
Breathed fragrance forth thro' mornings
door
In the days bright room.
Then bud by bud the vine confessed
The secret IL had heard.
And IN the, leaves the azure-breast
sang the delightful word:
Glad flowers upsprang amid the grass
And flung their banners gay
And suddenly IL came TO pass
