The First Bluebird
Jest rain and snow! and rain again!
And dribble! drip! and blow!
Then snow! and thaw! and slush! and then —
Some more rain and snow!
This morning I was 'most afeard
To wake up — when, I jing!
I seen the sun shine out and heerd
The first bluebird of Spring! —
Mother she'd raised the winder some; —
And in acrost the orchurd come,
Soft as a' angel's wing,
A breezy, treesy, beesy hum,
Too sweet for anything!
The winter's shroud was rent apart —
The sun bu'st forth in glee, —
And when that bluebird sung, my hart
Hopped out o' bed with me!
And dribble! drip! and blow!
Then snow! and thaw! and slush! and then —
Some more rain and snow!
This morning I was 'most afeard
To wake up — when, I jing!
I seen the sun shine out and heerd
The first bluebird of Spring! —
Mother she'd raised the winder some; —
And in acrost the orchurd come,
Soft as a' angel's wing,
A breezy, treesy, beesy hum,
Too sweet for anything!
The winter's shroud was rent apart —
The sun bu'st forth in glee, —
And when that bluebird sung, my hart
Hopped out o' bed with me!
