The air was warm and bright, the grass was green, and the leaves, and the lazy monarch butterflies were everywhere.

And life arose in our paths; for the tall flamingo hitherto unseen, with all gay glowing birds, flaunted his scarlet plumage before us. The golden and silver fish haunted the river.
Edgar Allan Poe
