SUMMER OF LOVE

SUMMER OF LOVE

June lavishes sweet-scented lovelinessAnd sprinkles sunfilled wine on everything;The very leaves grow drunk with bliss and singAnd every breeze becomes a soft caress.All earthly things felicity confessAnd fairies dance in many a moonlit ring;The fleetfoot hours fresh wealth of joyaunce bring;Life wears her gayest rose-embroidered dress.Kind June, why bear these golden gifts to me?All winter long I hear the throstle’s tune,All winter long red roses I can see,Reading the while Love’s ancient magic rune.In Love’s fair garden-close I wander free,So take your guerdon elsewhere, lovely June.

June lavishes sweet-scented loveliness

And sprinkles sunfilled wine on everything;

The very leaves grow drunk with bliss and sing

And every breeze becomes a soft caress.

All earthly things felicity confess

And fairies dance in many a moonlit ring;

The fleetfoot hours fresh wealth of joyaunce bring;

Life wears her gayest rose-embroidered dress.

Kind June, why bear these golden gifts to me?All winter long I hear the throstle’s tune,All winter long red roses I can see,Reading the while Love’s ancient magic rune.In Love’s fair garden-close I wander free,So take your guerdon elsewhere, lovely June.

Kind June, why bear these golden gifts to me?

All winter long I hear the throstle’s tune,

All winter long red roses I can see,

Reading the while Love’s ancient magic rune.

In Love’s fair garden-close I wander free,

So take your guerdon elsewhere, lovely June.
