It will be Summer—eventually.
Ladies—with parasols—
Sauntering Gentlemen—with Canes—
And little Girls—with Dolls—

Will tint the pallid landscape—
As 'twere a bright Bouquet—
Thro' drifted deep, in Parian—
The Village lies—today—

The Lilacs—bending many a year—
Will sway with purple load—
The Bees—will not despise the tune—
Their Forefathers—have hummed—

The Wild Rose—redden in the Bog—
The Aster—on the Hill
Her everlasting fashion—set—
And Covenant Gentians—frill—

Till Summer folds her miracle—
As Women—do—their Gown—
Of Priests—adjust the Symbols—
When Sacrament—is done—

I shall keep singing!
Birds will pass me
On their way to Yellower Climes-
Each - with a Robin's expectation-
I - with my Redbreast-
And my Rhymes-

Late - when I take my place in summer-
But - I shall bring a fuller tune-
Vespers - are sweeter than Matins - Signor-
Morning - only the seed of Noon-

This may be one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen...it's a doll....for $130.....that BREATHES....how desperate do you need to be for a baby to buy this?

I think Portland would be more of your speed! Just when I thought I have seen most of the city...it grows on me. Let's just say I like it alot!!! I guess I will just continue to look for Slow Bros dates in the Willamette Week.
