POEMS OF LIFE
TO-DAY
The Yesterdays we might have called our own But which, in our blindness, we let slip by, Alas! they know not to return again, Deep-buried doth each, within its grave, lie.
But O belov'ed, now that we have made The golden secret ours--to hold alway We will not sorrow o'er departed hours-- Just live in God's great glorious--To-day!
JEWELS
SOMETHING GONE
You come to me--you take my hand, You try to make me see Things should become as they once were, 'Twixt you and me.
I listen to each word, you say, I mark well ev'ry tone, Only to find--you plead in vain,-- There's something gone.
Something gone--that cannot come back again, Tho' most entreatingly you pray. Yet, not mine the fault,--but yours alone, It went away.
A-MAYING
We will go a-Maying dear, Just you and I together, Oh, the glory of God's blossoming Sunshiny weather! Ev'ry ill we will forget, Nor remember a regret, For 'twill never do to fret Whilst we are a-straying. Only laughter ringing clear, Waking echo far and near; You and I so happy dear; A-Maying! A-Maying!
