APRIL MAGIC, by FRANK R. WAXMAN First Line: We bid you joyous welcome Last Line: Beneath thy fairy feet. Subject(s): April | ||||||||
We bid you joyous welcome, Fair daughter of the spring, O, lovely lady April, What wondrous gifts you bring. Thy fresh and haunting beauty, With the magic of a dream, Hath won the frozen waters And loosed the singing stream. Thy fairy hand that beckons All winged bards on high, Hath waved a mystic baton To the minstrels of the sky. And out across the moorlands, Where heath and hillock meet, The drenched earth bestirs anew Beneath thy fairy feet. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FOR CITY SPRING by STEPHEN VINCENT BENET ESSAY ON STONE by HAYDEN CARRUTH APRIL NOT AN INVENTORY BUT A BLIZZARD by ALICE NOTLEY APRIL ONE by ALICIA SUSKIN OSTRIKER APRIL by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS MEMORY OF APRIL by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS APRIL MORTALITY by LEONIE ADAMS AN ETERNITY by ARCHIBALD MACLEISH |
