I HOW joyous the Spring is! How jocund the hours When the call of the throstle Awakens the flowers, When the merry, mad squirrels Their revels prolong, And the aisles of the forest Are ringing with song! II As the laughter of April Enkindles the Spring, As the song of the skylark Is blithest on wing, So stirs with new wonder The heart of a maid, When the first stars besprinkle The daffodil glade. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE PRINCESS WAKES IN THE WOOD by RANDALL JARRELL CHAMBER MUSIC: 20 by JAMES JOYCE ADVICE TO A FOREST by MAXWELL BODENHEIM A SOUTH CAROLINA FOREST by AMY LOWELL JOY IN THE WOODS by CLAUDE MCKAY IN BLACKWATER WOODS by MARY OLIVER THE PLACE I WANT TO GET BACK TO by MARY OLIVER A DULL DAY IN SEPTEMBER by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE |
