Across the empty fields winter retreats,
Releasing his high mortgage on the weather
Then wary Spring trips back on airy feet
And buds and grass and wind all laugh together:
"Where is the mortgage winter held on weather
Where is the winter desolate and gray?
GoneGoneand gone we hope forever."
The wind-flowers nod: "Yes, gone forever,
And gone we hope forever and a day"
And that is all the white wind-flowers said,
Standing by last year's stems so cold and dead.
The land is left a scroll for winds to read
The gray-starved land is used to birth and growth.
The gray-starved land is left to Spring and youth.
