A TREASURE HUNT by IDA MAY WOOD

First Line: I SEEK
Last Line: ITS GOLDEN LURE AT THE END.
Subject(s): TREASURES;

I seek
The baby breath of dawn hour,
Soft tintings of changing sky,
The sportive "tag" of raindrop
As she and the breeze dance by;

The cautious look of wood folk,
Tiptoe, half minded to flee,
The smiling shy of wild blooms,
Young leaves' tender melody;

The ringing call of songster
Who senses and hails me friend,
The arching proud of rainbow,
Its golden lure at the end.
