McManus, Emily: Canada - ZaunköniG - 17.06.2007 Canada How fair her meadows stretch from sea to sea With fruitful promise; changing robes of green, Varying ever, till the golden sheen Of autumnal marks a glad maturity! How gay 'mid orchard boughs the russets be! The uplands, crowned with crimson maples, lean Long cooling arms of shadow, while between In sun or shade the flocks roam far and free. From east to west the harvest is her own; On either hand the ocean; at her feet Her cool lakes' sweetest waters throb and beat Loke cool, firm pulses of her temperate zone. Gracious and just she calls from sea to sea, "No room for malice, none for bigotry." |
