A Mood Of Pavlowa

Title:     A Mood Of Pavlowa
Author: Don Marquis [More Titles by Marquis]

THE soul of the Spring through its body of earth
    Bursts in a bloom of fire,
  And the crocuses come in a rainbow riot of mirth....
    They flutter, they burn, they take wing, they
        aspire....
  Wings, motion and music and flame,
  Flower, woman and laughter, and all these the
        same!
  She is light and first love and the youth of the
        world,
  She is sandaled with joy ... she is lifted and
        whirled,
  She is flung, she is swirled, she is driven along
    By the carnival winds that have torn her away
    From the coronal bloom on the brow of the
        May....
  She is youth, she is foam, she is flame, she is
        visible Song!
