Class Prophecy ‘11 H. MILNOR BLOWERS Over the hills and thru valleys green, Swaying the trees with a force serene, Carrying clouds on its bosom fair, Smoothing the grasses with touches rare, Leaving each flower a kiss divine, Softly treads Zephyr, creature benign, Hidden in every corner and nook, Safe in deep umbrage, and almost forsook By the playful rays from the sun above, The violet sweet smiles as a token of love. Hillside and valley, woodland and plain, All beautified are in color’s refrain. Like a rare enchanting maiden With delicious fragrance laden, And with flowers upon her bosom, Spring has come! Woods and meadows loud are ringing With the chirping and the singing Of the happy, feathered nations, Spring has come! ’Neath the rustling leaves of an aged oak In a woodland vale, a poet awoke To list to the oak’s prophetic leaves And write what they tell of future weaves. ’Tis the time when the violets start to grow, And the red root to tread on the heels of the snow That the oak leaves utter prophetic strains To be versified in poetic refrains. Sweetest perfumes breezes waft, April showers are eagerly quaffed By gay flowers in bright colors rare; Spring has come! And so, Oak Leaves, whose visions see The future years as they shall be, Softly rustle a prophecy In whispers low.
