A Prayer in Spring
by Robert Frost
Oh, give us pleasure in the flowers today;
And
give us not to think so far away
As the uncertain harvest; keep
us here
All simply in the springing of the year.
Oh, give us pleasure in the orchard white,
Like nothing else by day, like ghosts by night;
And make us happy
in the happy bees,
The swarm dilating round the perfect trees.
And make us happy in the darting bird
That
suddenly above the bees is heard,
The meteor that thrusts with
needle bill,
And off a blossom in mid-air stands still.
For this is love and nothing else is love,
The which it is reserved for God above
To sanctify to what far
ends He will,
But which it only needs that we fulfill.
