Scent of blossomi in the air;
Eirds a-singing everywhere;
Gardens greening in long straight
rows;
Showers falling
And bright rainbows.
Breath of Springtime, sweet and rare;
Flowers a-peeping, here and there.
Wheat fields growing in broad ex
panse; Sunshine dancing
Warm days advance.
Distant hill-tops, wondrous fair;
Winds a-breathing, frcm some hidden
lair.
Clouds threatening, in deep blue
mass;
April smiling
Clouds all pass. S. S. S.
