STUDY IN STUDY

I crossed the park beneath the trees;

I saw her sitting at her ease.

.....But no! Her books were spread around

Beside her, open on the ground!

A student had found refuge there

In the blessed open air,

Under the arching blissful shade,

As though in a leafy country glade.

The traffic, faded to a hum,

Was just a pandemonium

That she ignored, as perching birds

Accompanied the foreign words,

Equations, algorithms, Greek,

Or whatever language she sought to speak.

Her study, a place of calm and ease,

There in the park beneath the trees.
