She fas,lions skies of indigo A0a washes them with rain. Her sweet breath ripples into waves The graceful, golden grain. With fairy wax she polishes The needles of the pine. She paints the flowers of the field With delicate design. Each ere she hurls to earth the sun From regions fax' on high. breaks, and splashes glorious hues Across the western sky. She sets Diana's sparkling nymphs In orderly ai'ray; AE through the night they gayly dance Along the Milky-Way. And then along the sable ways They shed their twinkling light To guide the steps of Queen Dian, The priestess of the night. Oh. Beauty, thou who touchest all With artistry divine, Come, with mystic loveliness, And touch this heart of mine! PEGGY WILSON Second prize, Poetry contest of Fel low Poets of North Carolina.)
