The murmuring of bees has ceased

The murmuring of Bees has ceased
But murmuring of some
Posterior, prophetic
Has simultaneous come -

The lower metres of the Year
When Nature's Laugh is done -
The Revelations of the Book
Whose Genesis was June

Appropriate Creatures to her change
The typic mother sends -
As Accent fades to interval
With separating Friends

Till what we could not choose • prove see, hasbeen come
And thoughts we will not show
More intimate with us become
Than Persons that we know -
