Daisies, clover, buttercup, Redtop, trefoil, meadowsweet, Ecstatic pinions, soaring up, Then gliding down to grassy seat.
Sunshine, laughter, mad desires, May day, June day, lucid skies, All reckless moods that love inspires -- The gladdest bird that sings and flies.
Meadows, orchards, bending sprays, Rushes, lilies, billowy wheat, Song and frolic fill his days, A feathered rondeau all complete.
Pink bloom, gold bloom, fleabane white, Dewdrop, raindrop, cooling shade, Bubbling throat and hovering flight, And jocund heart as e'er was made.
