New Zealand Verse/Ver Sacrum
XXVIII.
Ver Sacrum.
Soft is the sun, and soft is the air, and soft is the Mother's breast;Soft is the song she crooneth as I stretch me there to rest—Song with its warp of wooing wind, and its weft of bird-notes clear:How the heart it stills, and thrills, and fills . . .’Tis Spring—oh, Spring is here!
David Will. M. Burn.
