Afternoon on a Hill: Afternoon on a Hill

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!
