How pleasant the life of a bird must be, Flitting about in each leafy tree;

Like a green and beautiful palace hall,
With its airy chambers light and boon,
That open to sun and stars and moon;
That open to the bright blue sky,
And the frolicsome winds as they wander by.
–“Birds in Summer,”
Mary Howitt
