What memories of lakes, leaf-fringed and green, What summer revelries with birds and flowers Haunt me with joy whene'er I peer atween The mist of years that shrouds those happy hours!
The sail wide-flung to the exultant breeze, The camp, the paddle's dip, the sport, the song, The fire that glowed amidst the night-dark trees, The comradery of youth, the friendship strong!
And there was love to warm these sylvan days, New dawning with its wonder-working spell, Op'ning fair vistas down the darklin...g ways Where mystery and gentle beauty dwell.
Then were my eyes to poesy unsealed And common things grew strange, in beauty dight; Such was the power a little child could wield To glorify youth's darkness with her light.
But there were many leagues of plain and height And many years of heavy pain for me ; Westward the way until upon my sight Broke the wide reaches of the western sea!
A Vision of the West 43 Ah, California, vestured wild and fair, When I became a foster-child of thine, Breathing the balm of thy pellucid air, Beholding night-starred heaven's bright pageant shine, Climbing thy dizzy heights to see the world Empurpled far below in misty sweep, And watching waves of ocean grandly hurled In crests of triumph from the tossing deep, I knew that thou should'st be my rightful nurse, And longed to grow into thy ample grace.
