Behold the changeful April skies
And how the ghost OF winter flies.
How the dashing rain drops swecy
the air,
With shafts of sunlight here aud
there.
The wind blows and it rains they
say.
But truly it is a sunshine day.
And voices in the greenwood trees
Are shouting springtime melodies.
Far IN the field where walks the
crow,
The sunlight wakes to feryid glow
For sarmer nights make warmer
days,
That sweeter fields and woodland
ways.
The peach tree blooms against the
wall
The wind blows and the petals fall
And voices in the greenwood trees,
Are chanting spring time melodies.
The brook sings in undertone
Meath cooling banks over pcbbly
stone,
And where the brooklet winds is
way,
Its shimmering light reflects tho
day.
Far in you field deep in the wood
There is a cooling in its food,
And voices o the greenwood trees
Are chanting spring time melodies.
The little daisy deboniar,
The first to wake. the first to hear
Unlike the sweet Forget Me-Not
They love the wild neglected spot.
The little Blue Bell sweet and
Chaste,
Hath come in early April haste,
And voices IN the greenwood trees
Are chanting spring time melodies.
