Poem Title:
Poem	The songs I made from joy of earth In wanton wandering, Are rapturous with Maytime mirth And ectasy of Spring. But all the songs I sing today Take tediously the ear: Novemberishly dark are they With mortuary fear. For half a century has gone Since first I rang a rhyme; And that is long to linger on The tolerance of Time. This blue-veined hand with which I write Yet answers to my will; Though four-score years I count to-night I am unsilent still. "Senile old fool!" I hear you say; "Beside the dying fire You huddle and stiff-fingered play Your tired and tinny lyre." Well, though your patience I may try, Bear with me yet awhile, And though you scorn my singing I Will thank you with a smile. For I such soul-delighting joy Have found in simple rhyme, Since first a happy-hearted boy I coaxed a word to chime, That ere I tryst with Mother Earth Let from my heart arise A song of youth and starry mirth . . . Then close my eyes.
