DEAR bygone days, when with the Dawn we wandered Beside the dell where laughed the sun-kissed stream, Soft spray in rainbow mists about us weaving Its fairy tints into our happy dream. Still smiles the Dawn on all we loved so dearly, Still gleam the rainbow mists above the fall, But to my heart the waters murmur sadly Since you have left me, love, my life, my all. Come, love, in dreams, for days are long and weary, And we will watch beside the waters bright, And kneeling hand in hand will pray the Dawn To raise no more the curtains of the night. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LOVE'S CHANGE by ANNE REEVE ALDRICH WHEN GOD WEARIED by WILLIAM ROSE BENET SONG OF THE DESERT LARK by WILFRID SCAWEN BLUNT ADON OLAM by GEORGE HENRY BORROW HIDE AND GO SEEK by HENRY CUYLER BUNNER TOWARDS DEMOCRACY: PART 3.
