ABSENCE

Sometimes between long shadows on the grass

The little truant waves of sunlight pass,

My eyes grow dim with tenderness the while,

Thinking I see thee, thinking I see thee smile.

And sometimes in the twilight gloom, apart,

The tall trees whisper, whisper heart to heart,

From my fond lips the eager answers fall,

Thinking I hear thee, thinking I hear thee call.
