A Song in Spring

By Thomas S. Jones Jr.

1882-1932


O little buds all bourgeoning with Spring,
         You hold my winter in forgetfulness;
Without my window lilac branches swing,
Within my gate I hear a robin sing --
         O little laughing blooms that lift and bless!

So blow the breezes in a soft caress,
         Blowing my dreams upon a swallow's wing;
O little merry buds in dappled dress,
You fill my heart with very wantonness --
         O little buds all bourgeoning with Spring!
