The Spring Break -Up
It is all so big, No words of mine Can catch its tender tranquility ; When little summary brooks Rush clear And swift, like Those of Italian hills ; When frogs make Slender silver sound, And the eaves drip Intermittently, From fast-departing snow. That smell of snow The hills together. In a mad search For spring— It is all too tranquil, Full of nfites that Are neither black or white. For my- poor lingers To put on paper, That once lived And breathed and knew, With such greater sympathy, This same gray world. —Lorna Greene, in Morning Moods and Other Poems.’' -
