D. JoxES, Sculptor, Cmcinnati, Ohio. 162 MIRAGE.
I KNOW the Mirage — tlie vague, wandering ghost That haunts the desert's still and barren sand "With the close vision of a lovelier land, Once blossoming but now forever lost: It rises to the eyes of men who bear Hunger of heart and thirst of lip in vain — Mocking their souls with rest. Behold, how plain! Taking the breathless sand and boundless air, It comes up from the horizon, far away: Lost fountains flutter under beckoning palm, (Singing, al...l birds of longing thither start, ) Dear voices rise from homes where children play, The footsteps lighten, the blest air blows balm. Then all is sand — within a dreamer's heart!
163 SEPTEMBER.
All things are full of life this autumn morn; The hills seem growing under silver cloud; A fresher spirit in Nature's breast is born; The woodlands are blowing lustily and loud; The crows fly, cawing, among the flying leaves; On sunward-lifted branches struts the jay; The fluttering brooklet, quick and bright, receives Bright frosty silverings slow from ledges gray Of rock in buoyant sunshine glittering out; Cold apples drop through orchards mellowing; 'Neath forest-eaves quick squirrels laugh and shout; Farms answer farms as through bright morns of Spring, And joy, with dancing pulses full and strong, Joy, every -where, goes Maying with a song !
