Where pine-clad mountain slopes slant down, Canyon, Ravine and rock-cliff meet On the pebbly shores of an emerald lake. Nestling at their feet. Sometimes ten thousand diamonds gleam Across its waters, cold and blue, Then shifting In the soft sunlight, They change to sapphires of bril liant hue. Bright lilies rest their golden heads Against the water's crystal verge, Green pads mounting tho dancing waves While the winds chant a mournful dirge 1 Now like a polished pane of glass. The waters stretch far, far away; Beneath its surface gleam and daft Speckled trout at play. Then hovering storm-clouds gather dark ; As thunder rends the lowering skies. Opening the flood-gates of. the storm. And waves, like ocean breakers, rise. A lone swan for a moment lingers Among the rushes to rest and dream Then dips her wings in the snowy billows And sails away where white-caps gleam. Ah I see her gently rise On downy: pinions, pearly white, Then swiftly and silently she passes Into the clouds, beyond my sight. A flock of wild geese, circling low, Tn atotolv fnliimn nrourt and bold. Come fluttering downward thru the rain To gaily ride the breakers cold. But suddenly a glorious arch Gleams brightly 'gainst the western skies. All brllliant-hued and promise laden A rainbow and the wild storm dies. The sun burst forth In golden glory. His last rays glimmer across the lake The wind's wrath ceases as rippling waters In murmuring cadence on green shores break. As night's dark shadows quickly gather The mountains, like giants, seem to rise Into the distance, dimly blue, To meet the frowning skies. A long sigh down the canyon creeps; The pale moon glides o'er her star lit way; A night-hawk screeches among the pines The lake lies still and cold and gray. EM A R OS ETTA HOISINGTON.
