APRIL MAGIC, by FRANK R. WAXMAN First Line: We bid you joyous welcome Last Line: Beneath thy fairy feet. Subject(s): April | ||||||||
We bid you joyous welcome, Fair daughter of the spring, O, lovely lady April, What wondrous gifts you bring. Thy fresh and haunting beauty, With the magic of a dream, Hath won the frozen waters And loosed the singing stream. Thy fairy hand that beckons All winged bards on high, Hath waved a mystic baton To the minstrels of the sky. And out across the moorlands, Where heath and hillock meet, The drenched earth bestirs anew Beneath thy fairy feet. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FOR CITY SPRING by STEPHEN VINCENT BENET ESSAY ON STONE by HAYDEN CARRUTH APRIL NOT AN INVENTORY BUT A BLIZZARD by ALICE NOTLEY APRIL ONE by ALICIA SUSKIN OSTRIKER APRIL by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS MEMORY OF APRIL by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS |
