THE PASSING OF THE WILD GEESE

Richard Hoe Barrows

"Ye white-winged prophets of the coming spring,

With trumpet tones ye make the welkin ring.

Thrice glad ye make us with your wild hosannas,

Winging your way from sunny, green savannas.

We watch and see your light forms disappear

Far in the blue, transparent atmosphere,

While echoes in our breast your glad refrain,

And faith grows quick that spring will come again."

 

"I could hear the geese high overhead, the glorious gabbling only they can achieve, a sound that seems to hold all the wild freedom of the wilderness, of continental expanses, of the unseen and unknown of far places."

SIGURD F. OLSON, The Hidden Forest
