Song—My Love is Fairer than the Tassled Corn
The Unconquered Air, and Other Poems (1912)
My love is fairer than the tasseled cornThat matches with its gold the golden day;My love is sweeter than the breath of mornFragrant with new-mown hay.There 's nothing dearer or more tender,And day by day the Graces lend herA smile, a tear, to bind the heartAnd keep it hers alway!
