“Where nature with accustomed round Sweeps and garnishes the ground With kindly beauty, warm or cold Alternate seasons never old: Heathen, how furiously you rage, Cursing this blood and brimstone age, How furiously against your will You kill and kill again, and kill: All thought of peace behind you cast, Till like small boys with fear aghast, Each cries for God to understand, 'I could not help it, it was my hand.” HelpingHandsAgeBehindsBoysBloodCryColdSeasonsRoundsCastsWarmRageAccustomedBehind YouCursingHeathenAghast Book:Country Sentiment Source: Country Sentiment
“Will there never come a season Which shall rid us from the curse? Of a prose which knows no reason And an unmelodious verse: When the world shall cease to wonder At the genius of an Ass, And a boy's eccentric blunder Shall not bring success to pass: When mankind shall be delivered From the clash of magazines, And the inkstand shall be shivered Into countless smithereens: When there stands a muzzled stripling, Mute, beside a muzzled bore: When the Rudyards cease from Kipling And the Haggards Ride no more.” KnowsWorldReasonWonderBoysMankindGeniusSeasonsCeaseAssMagazinesCurseProseNo ReasonBoresVersesClashEccentricMuteBlundersHaggardKipling Author:James Kenneth Stephen

It seems more open minded and inclusive, and I love the seasons.” ImportantSeemsWantedBoysChildhoodGrewGrew UpSeasonsRaisesOpen MindOpen MindedMy Boys Author:Lauren Holly
“Have you ever noticed the perfection of nature? The seasons and how one changes into the next, the falling leaves, composting soil, rains, new seedlings, sunshine, growth, blossoms, etc. Grass grows, deer eats grass, lion eats deer, deer population is stabilized so there is grass for other animals; sunrise and sunset, boy and girl, winter and summer.” FallGirlNextGrowsGrowthAnimalBoysSummerRainPerfectionSeasonsWinterPopulationGrassSoilSunsetEtcSunshineLionsSunriseDeerBoy And GirlSunrise And SunsetFalling LeavesSeedlings Author:Bryan Kest
