"The Prairie Spring Waltz" - Southern Raised

Through primrose tufts, in that green bower,
The periwinkle trailed its wreaths;
And ’tis my faith that every flower
Enjoys the air it breathes.

The birds around me hopped and played,
Their thoughts I cannot measure:—
But the least motion which they made
It seemed a thrill of pleasure.

- William Wadsworth, excerpt from "Lines Written In Early Spring"
