SECRETS by WINIFRED LUCAS

First Line: LO, FOR THE MEMORY'S SAKE OF THEE
Last Line: ITS GLORY PRESS.
Subject(s): MEMORY; SECRETS;

LO, for the memory's sake of thee,
That silent on my spirit lies,
I dream that Nature looks at me
With softer eyes.

She with her secrets touches mine;—
On me her loftier loneliness
A moment lets its promise shine,—
Its glory press.
