AT MONAREE

When springtime comes to Monaree I know How the blue hyacinths blow, And how the daffodil lights its golden glow. These blossoms are remembrancers of those Who lie in long repose, Lost to our earthly scenes of joys and woes,— The saints of other days. How fair to see These living emblems be Of their good deeds—with spring at Monaree!
