TO JUNE, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Month of the perfect love
Last Line: Thou canst not dull the pang, but oh! Tune every chord to song!
Subject(s): June


MONTH of the perfect love,
Month of the perfect leaf, --
The mellow-mourning dove
Thine only note of grief, --
Oh, let me hide within thy shade a sorrow past relief!

Thou, unto whose employ
All Nature's arts belong --
Fragrance and warmth and joy:
Admit me to thy throng.
Thou canst not dull the pang, but oh! tune every chord to song!
