Verdant Song


twilight be the hour
such sweet calling of light
hear I the verdant song
serene be the day's surrender
lithe and lush branches of green
gentle is the sway in the winter garden
wind and evergreens hold to the light
upon colors of nature's grace
lilting echoes carried by the north wind
twilight be the hour
such sweet calling of light
hear I the verdant song.
