May Day

Sara Teasdale

THE SHINING line of motors,

The swaying motor-bus,

The prancing dancing horses

Are passing by for us.

The sunlight on the steeple,

The toys we stop to see,

The smiling passing people

Are all for you and me.

“I love you and I love you!”—

“And oh, I love you, too!”

“All of the flower girl’s lilies

Were only grown for you!”

Fifth Avenue and April

And love and lack of care—

The world is mad with music

Too beautiful to bear.
