BLUE-EYED GRASS.

    -- -- --

   




B LUE-EYED grass in the meadow
     And yarrow-blooms on the hill,
Cattails that rustle and whisper,
     And winds that are never still;


Blue-eyed grass in the meadow,
     A linnet's nest near by,
Blackbirds caroling clearly
     Somewhere between earth and sky;


Blue-eyed grass in the meadow,
     And the laden bee's low hum,
Milkweeds all by the roadside,
     To tell us summer is come.

   Mary Austin.
