I	A
I WALK about in driving snow	B
And drizzling rain splashed o'er and o'er	C
No sign that radiant spring e'en now	D
Stands at the threshold of the door	E
	-
No sign that fragrant violets burn	F
To burst the ground and quicken forth	G
No sign that swallow flights return	F
To gladden all the serious north	G
	-
But in my breast what flutterings here	H
What bursts of song what twitt'rings blest	I
Sure the first swallow of the year	J
Within my heart has built her nest	I
	-
	-
II	A
Oft on the gleaming April days	K
When skies are soft and winds are warm	L
And in the air a subtle charm	M
And on the hill a flight of rays	K
	-
When silver clouds slide through the blue	N
Spreading a pure transparent wing	O
And all the budding branches ring	O
With blithesome birds that warbling woo	N
	-
Beneath a pear tree's shade I lay	P
Deep bedded in the long thick grass	Q
And heard the twitt'ring swallow pass	Q
And grasshoppers at endless play	P
	-
I knew though flowers mine eyes did screen	R
That butterflies danced in the light	S
For breaking sunbeams in their flight	S
They flashed their shadows on the green	R
	-
And gazing up in dreamful ease	T
Where quiv'ring frail on shivery sprays	K
The blossoms mix a milky maze	K
What hum of golden girted bees	T
	-
So lily white the tree behold	U
Seems set on fire by burnished lights	V
And shoal on honeying shoal alights	V
And turns the snowy boughs to gold	U
	-
Thus on my spirit music fraught	W
Burst swarms of glimm'ring melodies	V
And like the yellow banded bees	V
Make honey of my flutt'ring thought	W
	-
	-
III	A
Sometimes on my soul will throng	X
Such a blossom burst of song	X
That I cannot seize it all	Y
Letting sweetest measures fall	Y
	-
Thus a child feels sudden sunk	Z
On a crowding violet bank	A2
And delighted and amazed	B2
Gathers in a flush d haste	C2
	-
Gathers them so fast and fleet	D2
Little fingers cannot meet	D2
O'er the lot and swifter still	E2
Than they cull the wealth they spill	E2
	-
To that sweets o'erflooded nook	F2
Casting back one longing look	F2
At the last it takes away	P
But one little odorous spray	P
	-
Yet through many a day and night	S
Flinging back the fragrant sight	S
Cleaves to face and hands and feet	D2
All the woodland's violets sweet	D2
	-
	-
IV	G2
Fain would I sing of each sweet sight and sound	H2
Of fleeting odours wheeling round and round	H2
Of sunbeams dancing on the virgin grass	V
Of flocks of fleecy clouds that glimmer as they pass	V
	-
Of larks that lost in the blue ether float	I2
Of the weird blackbird's dream enchanted note	I2
While the glad hedges palpitate with song	X
That drops like murm'ring rain the dewy fields among	J2
	-
Of blooming bushes and of budding trees	V
Of flaming flowers dotting the grassy leas	V
Of glowing pools and of the babbling rills	V
That flash through azure mists slumb'ring on folded hills	V
	-
Fain would I sing sweet April time of thee	K2
And mingle in thy wantonness of glee	K2
But thou such overwealth of sweets dost fling	O
My heart is all too full too full to speak or sing	O
	-
	-
V	K2
There's somewhat in the loveliness of spring	O
In the young light and in the fragrant bloom	L2
In the sweet song that each soft breeze doth wing	O
In the bright flowers that rise from earth's dark womb	L2
	-
Which fills with sadness the presentient mind	M2
And for a far off home awakes the sigh	G2
Which makes us gaze with longings undefined	M2
On dim blue hills and weep we know not why	G2
	-
	-
VI	G2
Oh birds winged voices children of the light	S
Whose song is love whose love is melody	K2
Shedding o'er hedge and field and bush and tree	K2
Your tuneful joy and musical delight	S
	-
Making the air the earth the heavens bright	S
Melodious tender sad and gay and free	K2
By all these gifts true poets born are ye	K2
Love circumscribes alone your restless flight	S
	-
Poets I say Ah not like poets here	H
That wander forth alone companionless	V
Whose lays are wrung from them by care and pain	N2
Who sing while blinded by the hot salt tear	O2
	-
Not such are ye but free from all distress	V
Ye with the sunlight range o'er land and main	N2
	-
	-
VII	G2
Oh soft sweet air of early spring	O
Again thou float'st on viewless wing	O
Coax'st snowdrops their white bells to ring	O
And wak'st the blackbird up to sing	O
	-
Again upon the bright'ning lea	K2
Beneath the budding bursting tree	K2
The toddling baby mites I see	K2
Skip jump and frisk in lamb like glee	K2
	-
But I am sad I know not why	G2
My breast heaves with the long drawn sigh	G2
The tear rounds slowly in mine eye	G2
I'd like to lay me down and die	G2
	-
	-
VIII	G2
The blooming hedge the budding grove	G2
Resound with notes of joy and love	G2
The gleaming bush the glimm'ring tree	K2
Live with a dewy melody	K2
	-
Along the meadows flashing bright	S
Run trills of shrill and sweet delight	S
E'en the small snowy clouds among	J2
Gush showers on showers of silver song	X
But thou my heart oh tell me why	G2
Hast thou no language but a sigh	G2
	-
	-
IX	K2
Like a flower fall of rain	N2
Like a snowy elfin train	N2
Like stray gleams of moonlight fair	O2
Do you shift upon the air	O2
Do you flutter on the breeze	K2
Do you fall upon the leas	K2
Blossoms of the apple trees	K2
Then on earth's bosom slow ye fade away	P
Like to a low and sweetly dying lay	P
	-
	-
X	K2
With thousand gaps the earth is split	P2
By sunbeams wounded o'er and o'er	C
My heart it acheth bit by bit	P2
Life's heat and dust have made it sore	E
	-
When wilt thou fall from clouds above	G2
In silver showers refreshing rain	N2
When wilt thou come reviving love	G2
With dew and make me whole again	Q2
	-
A little while big drops will slake	X
Oh earth thy thirst's hot agony	K2
But till my fevered heart doth break	X
Will solace ever come to me	K2
