The Lord of Growth has come; The sun has half his northward journey done, And in deep-buried roots moves the Spirit! On the dark-earthed fields Fires of last year's husks the farmer kindles - Sacrifices to the Lord of Growth; Smoke rises to the bluer heavens; While hawk and solemn crow cut with long wing the sparkling air. And little birds do sing, "Rejoice! Rejoice! the Springing Life is here!" Mounting sap now brightens trunk of tree and vine; And every tip-most twig swells out its leaf-buds. The peach puts forth her bitter-tinted pink; Redbud empurples far each wooded stretch; And, by the magic of the Lord of Spring, Stand orchards, very ghosts of winter snows, white-cloaked in blossom. Wheat, O sisters, greens in our rolling glebe! And corn, O brothers, springs from its golden seed! For Sun-Warmth, and Wind-Strength, and Praise-God-Rain Are abroad in our land; Three builders of worlds, with the Spirit, Go forth hand in hand. Make glad! The Lord of Growth has come; The sun has near his northward journey run. An in deep-buried roots moves Life-Ever-Living!
