First Line: How strange that thoughts of you
Last Line: At mention of your name!
Subject(s): Memory
How strange that thoughts of you
Wake memories grown cold
Which bud with hope again,
Burst into bloom once more
Like Aaron's rod of old --
At mention of your name!
How strange that thoughts of you
Come back across the years
And pierce with Love's old pain
Within its sacred shrine,
Hidden too deep for tears --
At mention of your name!
