PASQUE'S RETURN, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Again the pasque! Again the gift of beauty
Last Line: Is lying in the beauty of the cup.
Subject(s): Beauty; Spring


Again the Pasque! Again the gift of beauty,
The pointed chalice with its heart of gold!
Once more resurgence from a long quiescence!
Once more the Springtime by the purple told!
Again the hands of happy little children
Are filled with blossoms for a token sweet;
At last the bleakness of the far-flung prairies
Is broken by the color at our feet.
Again it brings its gift for mortal healing;
Again it holds its gorgeous bounty up;
Perchance we find a soul's revivifying
Is lying in the beauty of the cup.
