Lo! Behold! It was a day, in merry May The sun was up, alive and gay I saw you cheery and in bloom On a distant summer noon. Thy art lovely Thou blossoms bubbly You never brag of your wondrous shade You remain gentle and temperate Many a spring and winters’ play You have witnessed The seasons sway The feathered flock Finds home in you Chirps and chatters None bothers you. When the Heaven’s Eyes doth glare You lend your blinds To be fair. No winters’ cold Nor summers’ pride Could shake your beauty You held with might. The weary folks Rest and stare At your bounty That is rare. You hold your beauty To lease For all you wish Is to just please. You are the Aprils’ sweet Spring is when You move with the breeze. You adorn the blues And never muse To defy the hues I could not But stop to bear And carry your memory To cherish at lair.
