EARLY EVENING IN APRIL, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: A drift of fragrance down a lane of spring
Last Line: Wistful and delicate and debonair.
Subject(s): April; Evening; Mountains; Trees; Sunset; Twilight; Hills; Downs (great Britain)


ADRIFT of fragrance down a lane of spring;
Peach trees and pear trees spill their pink and white;
The lavender mountains loom, and mutely fling
Bold arms to clasp and quell the sunset light, --
An April spirit haunts the evening air,
Wistful and delicate and debonair.
