Poem by Robert Louis Stevenson

Spring Song

THE air was full of sun and birds,
The fresh air sparkled clearly.
Remembrance wakened in my heart
And I knew I loved her dearly.

The fallows and the leafless trees
And all my spirit tingled.
My earliest thought of love, and Spring's
First puff of perfume mingled.

In my still heart the thoughts awoke,
Came lone by lone together -
Say, birds and Sun and Spring, is Love
A mere affair of weather?

2. Songs of Travel and Other Verses. 20. To -
3. Light as the Linnet on My Way I Start
4. Sonet VI. As in the Hostel by the Bridge I Sate
5. The Canoe Speaks
