WIDE-AWAkE POETRY.
II Were Fairy.
Id love to sit on a clover top
And sway,
And swing and shake till the dew would
drop
In spray;
To Groom a song for the humble bee
To leave his golden honey with me.
And sway and swing, till the wind would
stop
To play.
I'd weave a hammock of spider thread
Loose hung,
Where grasses nodded above my head
And swung;
And all day long, while the hammock
swayed,
I'd Irvine and tangle the sun and shade
Till the cr1ekets song Ills time for
bed"
Was sung.
Then wrapped in a wee gold sunset cloud
I'd lie.
While night winds sang to the stars that
crowd
The sky,
And all night long would swing and
sleep
While drohics lighted their lamps to
peep;
20, hush" they'd whisper, if frogs sang
loud,
20, hush-a-by.'
