First Line: This is the time of the golden bough
Last Line: Of sunshine and tenderness.
Subject(s): Renewal
This is the time of the golden bough,
The April ardour, the mystic fire,
And the soft wind up from the South,
Lingering, rainy, and warm,
Dissolving sorrow and bidding new life aspire, --
New spirit take form, --
Through the waking green earth now.
This is the time of the golden tress,
The heaving heart and the shining glance,
And the little head that bows
Meekly to love at last.
Then two behold the flowery world in a trance
Through the spring's new vast
Of sunshine and tenderness.
