I meant to do my work today—

   But a brown bird sang in the apple tree,

And a butterfly flitted across the field,

   And all the leaves were calling me. 

And the wind went sighing over the land,

   Tossing the grasses to and fro,

And a rainbow held out its shining hand—

   So what could I do but laugh and go?

and, as the summer came on, and the year changed its name from May to June, I used to lie under the apple-trees in the afternoons, dreamily reading some old book, and through half-sleepy eyelids watching the silken shimmer of the Sound.

The Haunted Orchard by Richard Le Gallienne

The story follows a man who rents a country house in order to get some rest and inspiration for his work. The house has an old orchard that immediately captures his interest due to its neglected state and the eerie beauty of the overgrown apple trees.

Spring was once more in the world. As she sang to herself in the faraway woodlands her voice reached even the ears of the city, weary with the long winter. Daffodils flowered at the entrances to the Subway, furniture removing vans blocked the side streets, children clustered like blossoms on the doorsteps, the open cars were running, and the cry of the “cash clo'” man was once more heard in the…

Nature is forever arriving

and forever departing,

forever approaching,

forever vanishing;

but in her vanishings

there seems to be ever the waving of a hand,

in all her partings

a promise of meetings farther along the road.
