AIRILY, fairily, over the meadows, Over the broom-grasses waving and gay, O! see how it shimmers, How wavers and glimmers, Flying, and flying away. Hastefully, wastefully, over the copses, Over the hedge-rows in scattered array, See, see how 'tis curling And twinkling and whirling, Ever and ever away! Merrily, cheerily, down the far verges, Verges of fields growing misty and gray, Still, still how it shimmers, Grows fainter and glimmers, Shimmers, and glimmers away! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE LOVE SONNETS OF PROTEUS: 88.
