Such a sweet day


Why are ye silent
Birds where do ye fly
Winters not violent
Wi such a spring sky
The wheatlands are green snow & frost is away
Birds why are ye silent on such a sweet day
By the slated pigstye the red breast whispers
Where brown leaves lye the  hedge sparrow lispers
But why is the chaffinch and bullfinch so still
While the sulphur primroses bedeck the wood hill
