Lennox Amott Gaze Poems
- 1. Midsummer Idylls. Canto Ii
I.
Good day, and how d'ye do my friends and neighbours?
I must have dozed upon my easy chair;

I take my goosequill for some recreation,
I'll have a pleasurable time to-night,

O slumber on, untaught to feel
The weight of care and sorrow's blight.
Here have I often loved to steal
And o'er thee breathe a soft "good night."

The passing clouds are driving gentle showers of summer rain,
And the scent of hay-strewn meadows and the fresh-besprinkled ground
Is mingling with the perfume of the flowers that bloom around.
