John Keats - On the Grasshopper and Cricket

2014-11-07 208 Dailymotion

The poetry of earth is never dead: <br />When all the birds are faint with the hot sun, <br />And hide in cooling trees, a voice will run <br />From hedge to hedge about the new-mown mead; <br />That is the Grasshopper's--he takes the lead <br />In summer luxury,--he has never done <br />With his delights; for when tired out with fun <br />He rests at ease beneath some pleasant weed. <br />The poetry of earth is ceasing never: <br />On a lone winter evening, when the frost <br />Has wrought a silence, from the stove there shrills <br />The Cricket's song, in warmth increasing ever, <br />And seems to one in drowsiness half lost, <br />The Grasshopper's among some grassy hills.<br /><br />John Keats<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/on-the-grasshopper-and-cricket/
