Author Description

Excerpt from Beneath the Bough: Omar Khayyam WE y, 0 we y, The swallows and I, For winter is past once more We are speeding to bring The soft message of spring, To a far-away northern shore. We y, love, we y, The swallows and I, By orchard and fragrant lea Over valley and rill, Over ocean and hill, To the country we love, to thee! We y, love, we y, The swallows and I, They dream Of their last year's nest, And I of true eyes Like our northern skies, And a heart on which mine may rest!
