    The wind is awake, pretty leave, pretty leaves,
    Heed not what he says, he deceives, he deceives;
    Over and over
    To the lowly clover
    He has lisped the same love (and forgotten it, too).
    He will be lisping and pledging to you.

And April's in the West wind, and daffodils.

The faint old man shall lean his silver head
To feel thee; thou shalt kiss the child asleep,
And dry the moistened curls that overspread
His temples, while his breathing grows more deep.

Or out of breath with joy, could not enlarge
Their straighten'd lungs or conscious of their charge.
