IN THE WOODLANDS
In the forest lawns I see
Little ring-plots fenced around,
So that shrub and sapling tree
Thrive in safe and happy ground;
Little ring-plots fenced around,
So that shrub and sapling tree
Thrive in safe and happy ground;
And I wonder, Cannot I
Keep some little place apart,
Open to the wind and sky,
For the growing of my heart?
Keep some little place apart,
Open to the wind and sky,
For the growing of my heart?
