 | The Uncollected Poems of Henry Timrod |  |
A LIGHT UPON MY PATHWAY GLEAMS
A light upon my pathway gleams
And flowers that never glitter'd there,
Spring up beneath those sudden beams
The long and dreary waste to cheer.
And flowers that never glitter'd there,
Spring up beneath those sudden beams
The long and dreary waste to cheer.
That light is darted from thine eyes
Those flowers are hopes forgotten never,
And secret tears and heartfelt sighs
The dews that cherish them forever.
Those flowers are hopes forgotten never,
And secret tears and heartfelt sighs
The dews that cherish them forever.
