Title: Living Freshness
Author: Jean Blewett [ More Titles by Blewett]
O freshness, living freshness of a day In June! Spring scarce has gotten out of sight, And not a stain of wear shows on the grass Beneath our feet, and not a dead leaf calls, "Our day of loveliness is past and gone!" I found the thick wood steeped in pleasant smells, The dainty ferns hid in their sheltered nooks; The wild-flowers found the sunlight where they stood, And some hid their white faces quite away, While others lifted up their starry eyes And seemed right glad to ruffle in the breeze.
[The end] Jean Blewett's poem: Living Freshness ________________________________________________
