SONGS OF THE SEA CHILDREN: 8, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Under the greening willow
Last Line: That shall be by and by.
Subject(s): Time; Hope


Under the greening willow
Wanders a golden cry;
Oriole April up in the world
With morning day goes by.
Out of the virgin quiet
Like an awakening sigh,
With the wild, wild heart forever
A journeyer am I.
We are the wind's own brothers,
Sorrow and joy and I;
But thou art the hope of morrows
That shall be by and by.
