Dawn brought the flush of a rose colored day, Fast beat my heart with its heralding glow, Beauty disclosing, Love interposing— Blithely I ventured the promising way. Noontide had given me treasures untold, Eager, sun-dazzled I reached out for more; Reckless with living, Blind in my giving, Lavishly squandering more than my gold. Shadows and silence—enchanting twilight; Mystical overtones—infinite peace. Golden cloud plumes, Sifting soft blooms ... Star gleam and Love in the garden tonight. |
