The Blackbirds. As the blackbirds flit through the tossing trees, And the brown leaves float on the mad March breeze As the blackbirds carol and call and call, And the dead leaves flutter and fall and fall, My heart is elate with the silver songs, And casts care aside like the dead leaf throngsg Hope burgeons again, and my soul takes wing As the blackbirds soar and the blackbirds sing. Like a sable cloud in the cold blue sky, A-battle with Wings, see the blackbirds fly! And the gaunt old trees are all young again As the viral sap tingles through vivified vein. As the dead leaves flit, so my dead fears fall, And life leaps again as the blackbirds call. As the March comes back I'm a-thrill once more, And my heart beats high as the blackbirds soar. WALTER MALONE. 5
