First Line: The april night is still and sweet
Last Line: But not to me.
Alternate Author Name(s): Filsinger, Ernest B., Mrs.
Subject(s): Love
The April night is still and sweet
With flowers on every tree;
Peace comes to them on quiet feet,
But not to me.
My peace is hidden in his breast
Where I shall never be,
Love comes to-night to all the rest,
But not to me.
