My heart to day is like a southern wood	A
Through summer months it has been drunk with heat	B
And slumbered on unmindful of the beat	B
Of life beyond it sleep alone seemed good	A
	-
Now milder Autumn's tints are in the sky	C
The fervid heats of summer noons depart	D
And backward to the old haunts in my heart	D
The golden robins and the blue birds fly	C
	-
I hear the flutter of their airy wings	E
They flock about the Spring's deserted nest	F
And suddenly I feel within my breast	F
The stirring of sweet half forgotten things	E
	-
Bright sunny mornings golden growing hours	G
The building of glad birds among the trees	H
Wide open windows and the kindly breeze	H
Bringing the perfume of half open flowers	G
	-
A blithe face at the window fair with truth	I
A mellow laugh that falls like silver spray	J
Down through the sunlight of the perfect day	J
Ecstatic hopes that bud with Spring and Youth	I
	-
The morning time grew rank with summer blight	K
The birds flew northward fresher fields to find	L
And in our hearts we closed the folding blind	L
While drooping blossoms withered in the light	K
	-
The fair face at the window could not stay	J
The laugh grew weary with a minor strain	M
That borders on the foreign realm of pain	M
And hopes that blossomed ripened to decay	J
	-
Come happy birds and sing of vanished joy	N
Of that sweet Spring for ever passed away	J
No winter lies between us and that day	J
But what is sadder than the sweets that cloy	N
	-
My heart is green with leafage come and wake	O
The old time echoes with the songs of glee	P
For only echoes now are left to me	P
Though bloom and beauty cling to bush and brake	O
