IN A DREAM.
She came but for a little while,
Yet with a wondrous gleam;
She left within my soul her smile,
The Darling of my Dream!
Yet with a wondrous gleam;
She left within my soul her smile,
The Darling of my Dream!
O face too clear for sorrow or tear,
Too real for masks that seem;
I seek, but shall not find her Here,
The Darling of my Dream!
Too real for masks that seem;
I seek, but shall not find her Here,
The Darling of my Dream!
I wonder do you wait for me
Beside the glad Life-stream,
Or under the Leaf-of-Healing tree—
You Darling of my Dream!
Beside the glad Life-stream,
Or under the Leaf-of-Healing tree—
You Darling of my Dream!
O sometimes lift your veil by night,
And let one beauty-beam
Fill all my life for days with light,
You Darling of my Dream!
And let one beauty-beam
Fill all my life for days with light,
You Darling of my Dream!
