THE "WISE BLUEBIRD."

 Never was sweeter music—

Sunshine turned into song.

To set us dreaming of summer,

When the days and the dreams are long.

Winged lute¹ that we call a bluebird,

You blend in a silver strain

The sound of the laughing waters,

The patter of spring's sweet rain,

The voice of the wind, the sunshine,

And fragrance² of blossoming things.

Ah! you are a poem of April,

That God endowed with wings.

Eben. E. Rexford.
