TO MY CHILDREN: 8. JUNE, by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD Poet's Biography First Line: The skies are blue Last Line: Be sung -- be sung. Alternate Author Name(s): Radford, Ernest, Mrs. Subject(s): June | ||||||||
THE skies are blue O'er the meadow now, And the leaves are new On the willow-bough, While the glad earth sings In one joyous tune, All the happy things Of the happy June. Oh the joyous time Of the fresh sweet June, And the happy rhyme That must die so soon; But again -- again -- When the years are young, Will the sweet refrain Be sung -- be sung. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...JUNE (1) by WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT KNEE-DEEP IN JUNE by JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY THE SHEPHEARDES CALENDER: JUNE by EDMUND SPENSER JUNE BRACKEN AND HEATHER by ALFRED TENNYSON ADLESTROP by PHILIP EDWARD THOMAS CLOUDY JUNE by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN WHEN JUNE IS COME by ROBERT SEYMOUR BRIDGES TO A JUNE BREEZE by HENRY CUYLER BUNNER JUNE'S COMING by JOHN BURROUGHS TO MY CHILDREN: 3 by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD |
