The blocks are better than they were

The blocks are better than they were the snow is getting brown 
The mason's waist is plumper the ice is out of town.
The tender wears one less sweater the scaffold less forlorn 
Lest I sh'd be more chastened I’ll put a tool belt on.

    The morns are meeker than they were
    BY EMILY DICKINSON

    The morns are meeker than they were -
    The nuts are getting brown -
    The berry’s cheek is plumper -
    The rose is out of town.

    The maple wears a gayer scarf -
    The field a scarlet gown -
    Lest I sh'd be old-fashioned
    I’ll put a trinket on.
