A Spring Lilt
Through the silver mist
Of the blossom-spray
Trill the orioles: list
To their joyous lay!
"What in all the world, in all the world," they say,
"Is half so sweet, so sweet, is half so sweet as May?"
"June! June! June!"
Low croon
The brown bees in the clover.
"Sweet! Sweet! Sweet!
Repeat
The robins, nested over.
