[Children with their tiny hands]
Children with their tiny hands,
Fairies with their silver wands,
Skies in color, winds in tune,
Keep the joyous feast of June.
Fairies with their silver wands,
Skies in color, winds in tune,
Keep the joyous feast of June.
Happy hearts, that blossom high
With the rose's blazonry,
Feel a pulse of life serene
Throbbing through the meadows green.
With the rose's blazonry,
Feel a pulse of life serene
Throbbing through the meadows green.
In the cloudless summer night,
Fancy climbs her starry height;
Every leaf the breeze doth stir
Is to Love interpreter.
Fancy climbs her starry height;
Every leaf the breeze doth stir
Is to Love interpreter.
Such a beautiful content,
Such a charmed time, is sent
For all souls to say that June
Is a glimpse of God's high noon.
Such a charmed time, is sent
For all souls to say that June
Is a glimpse of God's high noon.
Julia Ward Howe.
