Excerpt from From Gold to Grey: Being Poems and Pictures of Life and Nature Fairer thou art, oh. Beautiful May! Than even thy sister, whose reign is o'er, The blue-eyed April. Who wept and smiled, ened the earth cold before. She sang of thee, and our hearts were glad With thoughts of the joys sweet May would bring We longed for thee and thy merry hours. Oh, thou most beautiful month of spring! There are sounds of pleasure o'er all the earth There are sweet birds singing in bush and tree There are laughing voices, and songs of mirth, And joyous faces to welcome thee. There are busy fingers in every field Plucking thy treasures rich and rare Oh, May so lovingly bountiful, Welcomes must greet thee everywhere.
