The world in bloom - like a song Trills out divinest revelry No fires - nor magic - doth outshine Tune of magnanimity Birds - sweet crescendo Descant - of the noon Bees - buzzing alto Sounds on which to swoon An opera - a ballad The bounty - Earth's beau boon The opera - evolution Ballad - winter's moon Sonata - of the summer Suffice to inspire poet's croon Lullabies - cross shores - o'er sands Cross meadows - o'er dunes Nature - fine conductor One sultry song - divine Astir - amidst the flowers Beauty twin to thine No greying restrained reason Restrains raw rancorous rhyme Turning - of the seasons Sounds of Heaven - sublime Morning - augmented melody Sunrise - writes the score Pure - as hymns - of Sunday Tell of a pious war All things bright and beautiful In tune - beyond the door That - therein - the song of life What God's voice is for!
