MORNING BY JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY
Breath of Morning - breath of May -
With your zest of yesterday
And crisp, balmy freshness, smite
Our old hearts with Youth's delight.
Tilt the cap of Boyhood - yea,
Where no "forelock" waves, to-day, -
Back, in breezy, cool excess,
Stroke it with the old caress.
Let us see as we have seen -
Where all paths are dewy-green,
And all human-kind are kin -
Let us be as we have been!
Good morning! Wishing you all a happy day! - Rachel
