MOONLIGHT SONG OF THE MOCKING-BIRD; A QUATRAIN by WILLIAM HAMILTON HAYNE

First Line: EACH GOLDEN NOTE OF MUSIC GREETS
Last Line: HAD FOUND ITS NEW BIRTH IN A BIRD.
Subject(s): KEATS, JOHN (1795-1821); MOCKINGBIRDS; POETRY & POETS;

Each golden note of music greets
The listening leaves, divinely stirred,
As if the vanished soul of Keats
Had found its new birth in a bird.
