SPRING SONG, by                    
First Line: Spring in his green vest strides the hill
Last Line: Like a dancing girl on a silver wire.
Subject(s): Spring


Spring in his green vest strides the hill;
The sun is as big as two circus rings;
And close by the road, each daffodil
Ties her golden bonnet strings.

Ties each string, while the field mice play,
And the robin calls from the cherry tree,
And the wind flirts by in her negligee,
And the tree toads sing by the barberry.

O, the tree toads sing like a sailor crew,
And the sunbeams set the brook on fire,
And the sky tip-tilts with its weight of blue
Like a dancing girl on a silver wire.
