Avery, Benjamin Parke: A WILD NOSEGAY. - ZaunköniG - 23.06.2008 Benjamin Parke Avery 1828-1875 USA A WILD NOSEGAY. SWEET-SCENTED messengers from landscape green, Thy presence is a blessing in my cot, A still memento of each sunny spot, Or shaded, where my wandering feet have been In search of thee. The winding, wet ravine, Luxuriant with golden flowers; the grot Beneath the live-oak, where small blossoms dot The mossy rock, and humming-birds are seen To flash and quiver through the tremulous leaves Of snowy buckeye; and the mountain steep Or wooded summit, where sad zephyr grieves Forever through the branches of the pine;-- All helped to form thee, and thou still dost keep Their charms before me, which I blend with thine. |
