WILD GEESE, by MABEL KINGSLEY RICHARDSON First Line: High in the april air Last Line: Back to her southern home. Subject(s): Geese; South Dakota; Spring | |||
High in the April air Flecking the dazzling sun, Northward the wild geese fare Luring the summer on. Spring-lilt is in their song, The heart of me flies after; Oh, let me go along To live with sun and laughter. But came the bleak November, And down the leaden sky The old way they remember, Drifting with plaintive cry. My fire-lit hearth is cheery, I have no wish to roam, For summer flies, aweary, Back to her Southern home. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPRING LEMONADE by TONY HOAGLAND A SPRING SONG by LYMAN WHITNEY ALLEN SPRING'S RETURN by GEORGE LAWRENCE ANDREWS ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD ODE TO SPRING by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD SPRING FLOODS by MAURICE BARING SPRING IN WINTER by CHARLOTTE FISKE BATES SPRING ON THE PRAIRIE by HERBERT BATES THE FARMER'S BOY: SPRING by ROBERT BLOOMFIELD A LETTER TO MARY by MABEL KINGSLEY RICHARDSON |
