DEAREST by RUTH CLAY PRICE

First Line: DEAREST, HARK TO THE SONG OF THE BIRD
Last Line: YOU ARE LOST IN ME.
Subject(s): HEARTS; LOVE; PERFUME;

Dearest, hark to the song of the bird—
Now, no longer heard:
As the song is lost in the blue,
I am lost in you.

Dearest, sense the land's perfume—
Fragrant leaf and bloom:
As the fragrance is lost in the sea,
You are lost in me.
