First Line: They spoke of him I love
Last Line: Hidden in you.
Alternate Author Name(s): Filsinger, Ernest B., Mrs.


THEY spoke of him I love
With cruel words and gay;
My lips kept silent guard
On all I could not say.

I heard, and down the street
The lonely trees in the square
Stood in the winter wind
Patient and bare.

I heard . . . oh voiceless trees
Under the wind, I knew
The eager terrible spring
Hidden in you.
