I've watched you now q full half hour.
Self poised upon that yellow flower,
Aud, little butterfly! indeed
| know not If you sleep or feed.
How moiionless! not frozen seas
More mo,ion1ess! and then
What joy awaits yeu, when the breeze
Has found you cut among the trees,
And calls you forth again!
This plot OF orchard ground is ours;
My trees they are, my sisters flowers;
Here rest your wings when they are weary
Here lodge as in a sanctuary!
Come often TO us, fear no wrong;
Sit near us on the bough!
Wen talk Of sunshine and Of song,
Aud summer days when We wore young;
Sweet childish days that we're as long
As twenty days are now.
