Spring

By George E. Tack

By George E. Tack
O LOVELY maid of blossoms, blithe and fair, Whose garments of arbutus sweetly smell, And low, brook-laughter, that like silver bell Chimes, and brings hallowed memories, soothing care, Your presence fills with beauty all the air. I hear your fragrant thoughts softly unfold, I hear the sound of dandelion-gold, And songs of stars that mount each heavenly stair. Dear to my soul you are, sweet, dainty spring, And o'er the surly Winter's deaf'ning roar I hear your gentle whispers, as you come In joyous mood, and perfumed petals fling, And seem, as waken songs on lips long dumb, God's pledge of love and life forevermore.
