O' That Such Spring Glory Could Last All the Year Round
O' That Such Spring Glory Could Last All The Year Round
Rain splattering across bright green lawn this new morn
wetting earthen soil, soaking new baby grass soft born
distant thunder, echoes blasting that Nature yields
more of her sweetness, on man and his many fields.
O' that such Spring glory could last all the year round
with its beauty and into man some sense thus pound
yet life takes its pleasure as others seasons flow
even in harsh winter and its white falling snow.
From Summer's views, this old soul so oft seeks much more
within forests heavy dark and lake's lapping shores
or mountain ledge seeing the world tiny and small
oft wading waters, spit forth by cool waterfalls.
Rain splattering across the green lawn this new morn.
Wetting earthen soil, soaking new baby grass soft born.
R. J. Lindley, April 10th,1977
