SATB, piano
I will be the gladdest thing
Afternoon on a Hill
I will be the gladdest thing
Under the sun!
I will touch a hundred flowers
And not pick one.
I will look at cliffs and clouds
With quiet eyes,
Watch the wind bow down the grass.
And the grass rise.
And when lights begin to show
Up from the town,
I will mark which must be mine.
And then start down.
Edna St Vincent Millay
