Blooms Of May

    By James Whitcomb Riley



    But yesterday!...
    O blooms of May,
    And summer roses - Where-away?
    O stars above,
    And lips of love
    And all the honeyed sweets thereof!

    O lad and lass
    And orchard-pass,
    And briered lane, and daisied grass!
    O gleam and gloom,
    And woodland bloom,
    And breezy breaths of all perfume! -

    No more for me
    Or mine shall be
    Thy raptures - save in memory, -
    No more - no more -
    Till through the Door
    Of Glory gleam the days of yore.
