Spring Morning by Marion Strobel

S3 E2: Spring Morning by Marion Strobel O day—if I could cup my hands and drink of you, And make this shining wonder be A part of me! O day! O day! You lift and sway your colors on the sky Till I am crushed with beauty. Why is there More of reeling sunlit air Than I can breathe? Why is there sound In silence? Why is a singing wound About each hour? And perfume when there is no flower? O day! O Day! How may I press Nearer to loveliness? This poem is in the public domain.  Marion Strobel was a poet born in 1895. She was an influential figure in the early 20th century, and her work was widely read and appreciated.
