Poems (Mary Coleridge)/Poem 176

​

CLXXVI JOY IN JOY
In the blue and golden summer weather, When sun and moon held sway,I blessed the fair because they were fair And the gay because they were gay.
​
I blessed their flocks and blessed their herds, And charmèd them from all care,Because the gay were gay as birds And because the fair were fair.
