Visions And Other Verse Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Voices and Visions: A Collection of Verse, Chiefly Occasional To the Lady of the Flowers Fair in thy garden of the golden years, Amid thy flowers - the red, red rose of cheer, The white roses of gentleness and patience, And the lilies of charity and faith - I see thee stand, transfigured in the pale Penumbra of the dying day, a flower Amid thy flowers. Above the dreaming hills The star of love shines in the luminous west, And through the stilly air from days afar The bells of memory peal a silver chime. Still die in melody and swell again, Dear cadences, that hearkening we may know Once more the sweetness of the days far past, The long, serene, clear shining Summer days, Wherein we walked through scented meadows starred With ox-eyed daisies, or along the cool, Fresh woodland ways with clustering locust blooms O'erhung. O Lady of the Flowers, still Thy full-brown lilies and thy garden's pride Like humbler wildflowers plucked beside the way.
