First Line: The roofs are shining from the rain
Last Line: Save that it sings in me.
Alternate Author Name(s): Filsinger, Ernest B., Mrs.
Subject(s): Spring


The roofs are shining from the rain,
The sparrows twitter as they fly,
And with a windy April grace
The little clouds go by.

Yet the back-yards are bare and brown
With only one unchanging tree --
I could not be so sure of Spring
Save that it sings in me.
