July.

The proud red rose Is faded.
The white rose spent and gone.
One solitary blossom
Left on its stem alone.
The perfume OF the wild grape
Has fed the summer wind.
And watts but recollection
Across the weary mind
Oh. not a daisy blossoms.
And scarce robin sings.
SO anxiousy are watching
The flight of new-found wings.
But basking on the nillpond.
With petals round and white,
The lilies lie uplifting
Their golden hearts to light
The grasses gently waving.
Where south winds sportive play,
Await the shining scythe blade
To fall ripe fragrant hay.
The yellow grain is bending,
The blue sky quickly shrouds
To pile IT'S tteecy masses
IA loud spent thunder clouds:
And pushing DER the pebbles.
The brook with sleepy song
Has lost its spsingtlme gladness
And softly steals along.
While down the stream swift sk.mrntn,
The blue gauze dragon-fy
IS listening to the waters
That murmur OF July.
