Love
Joy in Joy
From Poems (1908)
Love
In the blue and golden summer weather,
When sun and moon held sway,
I blessed the fair because they were fair
And the gay because they were gay.
I blessed their flocks and blessed their herds,
And charmed them from all care,
Because the gay were gay as birds
And because the fair were fair.
