Excerpt from Random Rhymes: Being a Collection of Dialect and Other Pieces
The Saskatchewan Grain Grower
The wind-fanned flame leaps lightly through the grass,
Flickers and fails; flares up and leaps again;
Swift flocks of startled prairie chickens pass
And skim on stiffened wing across the plain.
The gopher gallops madly o'er the field,
Then, frozen, stands and simulates a stick,
But, stricken with panic, quickly uncongealed,
Hies to his hole, and there repeats the trick.
The rabbit's fuzzy coat of winter white
Is all besmirched with streaks of sombre brown,
As if his mad March-frolics overnight
Had knocked Dame Nature's signs of "Wet Paint" down.
Ever with noiseless tread the gray house-cat
Among the stubble stalks the thieving mouse,
And, toiling ceaselessly, the brown musk-rat
Repairs the winter's damage to his house.
Once more the nightly chorus of the frogs
Proclaims to all the glad return of spring,
While partridges parade the hollow logs
And tango to the beat of drumming wing.
In frequent flocks far-flying water fowl
Light on the lake with loud-resounding quack!
And in the nearby bush is heard the howl
Of King Coyote summoning his pack.
From dawn till dark the plaintive kildees wail,
Northward the far-strung flock of wild geese goes,
While everywhere is heard o'er hill and dale
The bickering blackbirds and the cawing crows.
