Poem by Bliss Carman

* * *

The starry midnight whispers,
As I muse before the fire
On the ashes of ambition
And the embers of desire,

"Life has no other logic,
And time no other creed,
Than: 'I for joy will follow.
Where thou for love dost lead!'"

1. April Now in Morning Clad
2. Spring's Saraband
3. The Tree of Heaven
4. Peony
5. Now Is the Time of Year
