Nature

Morning

by Jean Blewett 1862–1934

From The Cornflower, and Other Poems (1906)

Nature

The eastern sky grew all aglow,
A tinted fleet sailed just below.

The thick wood and the clinging mist
Slow parted, wept good-bye, and kissed.

To primrose, tulip, daffodil,
The wind came piping gay and shrill:

"Wake up! wake up! while day is new,
And all the world is washed with dew!"
