A Mocking Bird singing outside the
door,
What word is he trilling there, over
and Der?
Spring! Spring!
Come, all, and sing!
Springtime is here, once more!"
Blossoms like snowfakes against the
green trees,
Aswaying and whispering in each pass
ing breeze:
Spring! Spring!
Come, birds, and sing!
Springtime! oh, Springtime is here.
Down in dark knobs, or, where the
sun beams,
Here, there, and everywhere, gay
colors CLEAN;
Violets are peeping from under the
leaves,
White blossoms cover the dogwood
trees;
And straight young oaks stand, their
bare tops crowned
With glory of wild yellow jasmine
around.
Ciumps of honeysuckye hold flushed
heads high,
Eager to glimpse their sun-god in the
sky;
While the grancy-greabeard, all
plumy and new,
Shines misty and soft, like a web wet
with dew.
No need for look at the almanac
here,
TIC know just the place and the time
of the year.
The purple shadows on newly-plowed
fields,
The rosy glow left, as home the sun
steals:
Are signs far surer than those made
by men,
