It was a whisper; if you please,
   almost a song played midst' the leaves.
Some soft care,
within the air;
 it stirred my heart,
it met me there.

   To my heart and burdened mind,
   a memory, a smile kind;
   I had been here once before,
  that moment touched a day
of yore.

I basked within a golden glow,
A time flown sorrowed
years ago...

Could it be though much is strange,
in earthly plain of tears and change,
 that I could reach through veil of time,
to touch the depth of the sublime?

That I could find you there again!
 Dear, my heart, Oh, long missed friend!

I sensed you there,
so near to me;
 in that day of
memory.....
