James Whitcomb Riley - Go Winter!James Whitcomb Riley - Go Winter!
Work rating: Low


Go, Winter!  Go thy ways!  We want again   The twitter of the bluebird and the wren;   Leaves ever greener growing, and the shine       Of Summer`s sun--not thine.--   Thy sun, which mocks our need of warmth and love   And all the heartening fervencies thereof,   It scarce hath heat enow to warm our thin       Pathetic yearnings in.   So get thee from us!  We are cold, God wot,   Even as _thou_ art.--We remember not   How blithe we hailed thy coming.--That was O       Too long--too long ago!   Get from us utterly!  Ho!  Summer then   Shall spread her grasses where thy snows have been,   And thy last icy footprint melt and mold       In her first marigold.
