Boundless Joy
A Bobolink came whistling strong
Proclaiming boundless joy
Vicariously my soul was filled
What a golden ploy
Deliberately he sauntered near
My heart he touched supreme
All other stimuli counterfeit
Simplicity now my theme
Wrung dry the hills and grooves of gray
My orchard now adorned
With music from Redbreast settled
Upon the summer's lawn
Inspired by Emily Dickinson
