SUMMER STREAMS.

(From April Airs, by Bliss Carman.)

All day long beneath the sun
Shining through the fields they run,
       
Singing in a cadence known
To the seraphs round the throne.
       
And the traveller drawing near
Through the meadow, halts to hear
     
Anthems of a natural joy
No disaster can destroy.
       
All night long from set of sun
Through the starry woods they run,
       
Singing through the purple dark
Songs to make a traveller hark.
       
All night long, when winds are low,
Underneath my window go
       
The immortal happy streams,
Making music through my dreams.
