Read the following poem and summarizes it:

The sun does arise,

And make happy the skies.

The merry bells ring

To welcome the Spring.

The sky-lark and thrush,

The birds of the bush,

Sing louder around,

To the bells' cheerful sound.

While our sports shall be seen

On the Ecchoing Green.

Old John, with white hair

Does laugh away care,

Sitting under the oak,

Among the old folk,

They laugh at our play,

And soon they all say.

'Such, such were the joys.

When we all girls & boys,

In our youth-time were seen,

On the Ecchoing Green.'

Till the little ones weary

No more can be merry

The sun does descend,

And our sports have an end:

Round the laps of their mothers,

Many sisters and brothers,

Like birds in their nest,

Are ready for rest;

And sport no more seen,

On the darkening Green.

    This poem is a metaphor for how one's life is like the rising of the sun at the beginning of the day (when you are young), everyone is excited and energized, ready for the day. But by the end of the day (when you are old), you begin to get very tired.
