At the Gates of Spring

Charles G. D. Roberts

 Next Poem          

With April here,
And first thin green on the awakening bough,
What wonderful things and dear,
My tired heart to cheer,
At last appear!
Colours of dream afloat on cloud and tree,
So far, so clear,
A spell, a mystery;
And joys that thrill and sing,
New come on mating wing,
The wistfulness and ardour of the spring–
And Thou!

    Reminds me of my childhood, especially the line about "the first thin green on the awakening bough". Love how the words bring spring's mystique back to life.
