OAK LEAVES 1950 N L RY ,ag , , W, L - I J g YOUTH I saw the sun rise over the riverg The water was blue and sungold full: I gazed and gazed for I thought that never Could this world be so beautiful. My mind was full of charm of the morn And I knew that spring was here. I heard its voice in the murmer of winds And in song of a bird by my window nearg In the leaves of grass shone diamonds of dew, The region was suddenly full of light, And shyly heavenward raised their heads Sweet spring flowers, yellow and blue and white. They rose and opened their buds to the air. Gazing I marveled at spring's new birth. In those bright moments I felt as if Light angel wings had touched the earth Which now was living, blooming and new In that beautiful golden morning. It was morning for me and all my friends, The time when nature and we were gay. The path to the world was paved with gold And earth her treasures before us lay As she always does in youth. She drew, charmed me and held me in thrall And I longed more fully and richly to live, To run forward to greet this new life, The best I had I wanted to give, All was so good and beautiful 7
