The thought of you is like a breath of spring, Sweet with a promise even as the wind; It warms my heart again and clears my mind, And sets the flowers of pleasure blossoming. Love, like a bird, returns with it to sing; Life leaves the shadows everywhere behind; -- It bubbles up and hastens forth to find The sunshine bright with buds and birds a-wing. And, like the fragrance of the woodland breeze, This precious thought is sweet with memories Of long ago when we as children met, -- Of other days which you for me made bright With so much happiness and love and light That while I live I never shall forget. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SPOON RIVER ANTHOLOGY: DORA WILLIAMS by EDGAR LEE MASTERS SCHOOLS OF LITTLE FISH by MARVIN BELL TO KNOW IN REVERIE THE ONLY PHENOMENOLOGY OF THE ABSOLUTE by HAYDEN CARRUTH THE LAST MAN'S CLUB by JAMES GALVIN JOY (1) by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON |
