VAGRANT VERSE
COTTAGE SONG. Morning and night I bring Clear water from the spring, And through the lyric noon I hear the larks in tune. . . . My garden is alight With currants red and white; And my blue curtains peep On starry courses deep, When down her silver tides The moon on Cotswood rides. My path of paven gray Is thoroughfare all day For fellowship, till time Bids us with candles climb The little whitewashed stair Above my lavendar. —From “Tides,” by John Drinkwater.
