Poetry Sunday: May Night by Sara Teasdale

Sara Teasdale wrote this poem in 1915, but it still feels just as fresh today.
 
May Night

by Sara Teasdale

The spring is fresh and fearless
And every leaf is new,
The world is brimmed with moonlight,
The lilac brimmed with dew.

Here in the moving shadows
I catch my breath and sing--
My heart is fresh and fearless
And over-brimmed with spring.
