STESPEAN, 1926 Sih Who has not heard the penetrating silence Of the memory of a deed undone, The silence of our souls before a great madonna, The silent awe and horror in the roar of the battlefield : But the silence of death, drifting in on folded wings, Is the greatest silence of all. S. F., Academy, ' 26. st ring Spring is a fresh white hyacinth Around whose virgin petals Lingers an alluring perfume, Like the damp smell of the earth After an April shower. Spring is the flash of a bluebird ' s wing, A prick of vivid color ' gainst a rain-swept sky With its attendant note of melody, A poignantly happy song. Spring is a veil of shimmering sunlight Which gathers the whole bursting earth In its graceful embrace, Or the sunny joyousness of a daffodil, And the impudence of a clean March wind. C. S. R., ' 28.
