Class Poem-1 9 1 1 My tasks were done, and weary of the world Of care and toil, I wandered forth alone. The path I trod stretched toward the setting sun Whose vari-tinted rays lit up the sky To right and left' and far above my head. Un either side, tall sentinels rose up, Their leafy branches swaying in the breeze And humming a low lullaby to hush All nature's children far and ,wide. And as I gazed upon them there, I could not guess If they were set there for such souls as I, To give protection from the woods within 5 Or to conceal from curious human eyes Nature's sweet purity. And, walking, I Espied, while pondering thus, a smaller path 'Which went athwart the first, and which at last Did lead me, following with weary feet, To where the woodland foliage gave way And left a space all open to the skyg And with a verdant carpet soft as down, And all around there rose a grassy mound Which sloped down gently to the central spot. I paused g afar I heard the muffled roar Of steady waterfall, which strangely seemed To mingle with the sweetly murmuring breath Of slowly dying wind, And nearer, was The last faint twitter of the woodland birds, VVhich just before had sought their nightly perch. A feeling of serenity lay hold ' Upon my soul, and with a thankful heart I lay upon the grassy moundg and as I looked upon the little cup of green Queer fancies trooped across my mind. Perhaps This was the very rendezvous of elves And fairies, who were dwelling in the woodsg Perhaps by night this formed their banquet hall 5 Or else, perhaps, their queen here held her courtg Perhaps- But here there broke upon my ear The sound of distant music, born along Upon the last faint movements of the wind. twin
