Robert Louis Stevenson

The Hayloft

The Hayloft
 
Through all the pleasant meadow—side
The grass grew shoulder—high,
Till the shining scythes went far and wide
And cut it down to dry.
 
Those green and sweetly smelling crops
They led the waggons home;
And they piled them here in mountain tops
For mountaineers to roam.
 
Here is Mount Clear, Mount Rusty—Nail,
Mount Eagle and Mount High;—
The mice that in these mountains dwell,
No happier are than I!
 
Oh, what a joy to clamber there,
Oh, what a place for play,
With the sweet, the dim, the dusty air,
The happy hills of hay!
