Explore "My Bonie Bell" by Robert Burns on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The smiling Spring comes in rejoicing, / And surly Winter grimly flies; / Now crystal clear are the falling waters, / And bonie blue are the sunny skies. / Fresh o'er the mountains breaks forth the morning, / The ev'ning gilds the ocean's swell; / All creatures joy in the sun's returning, / And I rejoice in my bonie Bell.
The flowery Spring leads sunny Summer, / The yellow Autumn presses near; / Then in his turn comes gloomy Winter, / Till smiling Spring again appear: / Thus seasons dancing, life advancing, / Old Time and Nature their changes tell; / But never ranging, still unchanging, / I adore my bonie Bell.
