Something Told the Wild Geese ~Rachel Field

Something told the wild geese
It was time to go.
Though the fields lay golden
Something whispered, - "snow".
Leaves were green and stirring,
Berries, lustre-glossed,
But beneath warm feathers
Something cautioned, - "frost".
All the sagging orchards
Steamed with amber spice,
But each wild breast stiffened
At remembered ice.
Something told the wild geese
It was time to fly -
Summer sun was on their wings,
Winter in their cry.
