The Song Of The Plants.
THE SONG OF THE PLANTS .
AVE are coming—we are coming , To welcome lovely Spring ; The air is breathing mildly , The birds are on the wing . The garden smiles with gladness ,
All clad in cheerful green ; And beauteous is the sunbeam That lightly gilds the scene . Our tender buds are bursting At Nature ' s welcome call , —
They hear upon the breezes The voice that speaks to all . ' It is the voice mysterious That tells of seasons fair , — When countless flow ' rs will blossom , And fragrance fill the air .
Young foliage clothes our branches Of every varied hue , And soon will opening flow ' r buds Receive the morning dew ; The leaves will shade the song-birds From sultry beams above ,
And vibrate with the music Of innocence and love . AVe are coming—we are coming , Revived—renew'd in birth—Reclothed in vernal glory
To beautify the Earth \ All silently rejoicing That Life renew'd is giv ' n , AVe hear the voice of Nature , And bend our heads to Heav ' n . AV . I-IERSEK . Shakspeare Lodge , A o . 3 , j (> .
