Spring Ecstasy
Oh, let me run and hide, Let me run straight to God; The weather is so mad with white From sky down to the clod !
If but one thing were so. Lilac, or thorn out there, It would not be, indeed. So hard to bear.
The weather has gone mad with white; The cloud, the highway touch; White lilac is enough; White thorn too much !
