PATH FLOWER

A red-cap sang in Bishop's wood, A lark o'er Golder's lane, As I the April pathway trod Bound west for Willesden.

At foot each tiny blade grew big And taller stood to hear, And every leaf on every twig Was like a little ear.

As I too paused, and both ways tried To catch the rippling rain,-- So still, a hare kept at my side His tussock of disdain,--

Behind me close I heard a step, A soft pit-pat surprise, And looking round my eyes fell deep Into sweet other eyes;

The eyes like wells, where sun lies too, So clear and trustful brown, Without a bubble warning you That here's a place to drown.

"How many miles?" Her broken shoes Had told of more than one. She answered like a dreaming Muse, "I came from Islington."

"So long a tramp?" Two gentle nods, Then seemed to lift a wing, And words fell soft as willow-buds, "I came to find the Spring."

A timid voice, yet not afraid In ways so sweet to roam, As it with honey bees had played And could no more go home.

Her home! I saw the human lair, I heard the hucksters bawl, I stifled with the thickened air Of bickering mart and stall.

Without a tuppence for a ride, Her feet had set her free. Her rags, that decency defied, Seemed new with liberty.
