APPLE BLOSSOM TIME, by JESSIE H. WIXOM First Line: Apple blossoms softly falling Last Line: Yellow water lilies lie. Subject(s): Nature; Summer | ||||||||
Apple blossoms softly falling On the air so sweet, And the church bells calling In the valley at my feet. Rose and myrtle blooms surround me All a-tremble in soft breeze, Buttercups and pansies purple, Nod and curtsy to the trees. Overhead white clouds go sailing 'Cross a sunlit, summer sky. On the river's bosom, trailing, Yellow water lilies lie. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE ADVANCE OF SUMMER by MARY KINZIE THE SUMMER IMAGE by LEONIE ADAMS CANOEBIAL BLISS by JOSEPH ASHBY-STERRY THE END OF SUMMER by HENRY MEADE BLAND THE FARMER'S BOY: SUMMER by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD SONNET: 14.
