LOVE IN THE WOODS
Green moss, green fern, green sheen on beetle wings
In forest ways;
And in my heart young love that newly springs
Through summer days.
In forest ways;
And in my heart young love that newly springs
Through summer days.
Sweet love that over summer's heated rays
Its incense flings;
To mingle with the pinewood's scented haze
And all sweet things;
Its incense flings;
To mingle with the pinewood's scented haze
And all sweet things;
Freed love that fearless threads the sun's hot maze
On sapphire wings;
Bright love that glows more bright when day delays
And curfew rings;—

Bright love that glows more bright when day delays
And curfew rings;—
Glad love, a fledgeling that its first song sings
Through noonday blaze;
Sweetheart, such love is here where star-moss springs
In forest ways.
Through noonday blaze;
Sweetheart, such love is here where star-moss springs
In forest ways.
