from The Procession of the Seasons
July
Sunshine and shadow play amid the trees
In bosky groves, while from the vivid sky
The sun’s gold arrows fleck the fields at noon,
Where weary cattle to their slumber hie.
How sweet the music of the purling rill,
Trickling adown the grassy hill!
While dreamy fancies come to give repose
When the first star of evening glows.

I ventured onto Annette Wynne biography, tapping your link here George. Saw a wonderful well worn book of her poems. Listened to a young boy recite Indian Children, a poem which would be appropriate to read today, currently. Thanks for sharing this children's poet. I have written children's poems, was a children's poet in my community. 💟💟💟💟💟💟
