Cactus And Pine PDF Download

Excerpt from Pine Cones and Cactus Blooms You are, nestling in your couch so high, First favorite of the hosts of sky, As an infant in her mother's eye. Amid your scenes so fair and Wild, Was I nurtured when a little child, And my soul to poesy was beguiled. Whether tempests rave, or zephyrs laugh, Your patriot soul soars above the raff, And sets up Old Glory's proud Flagstaff. Winter's snows cover your fair face, Softening all lines to a tender grace, As does a woman's charms, her silks and lace. The resinous airs from your pines give health, Your ranges and forests abundant wealth. High resolves from high plains creep in by stealth.
