HIDDEN by S. T. LIVINGSTON

First Line: LOVE IS LIKE ARBUTUS BLOOMING
Last Line: IT IS THERE.
Subject(s): LONGING; LOVE;

LOVE is like arbutus blooming
'Neath the leaves, but still perfuming
All the air.

Tho' you may not see it growing,
Still you know from perfume blowing
It is there.

Ofttimes love its deep abiding
'Neath the heart is slyly hiding
Unaware.

Yet you know from light that dances
In the soft eyes' smiles and glances
It is there.
