The Poet who dedicated his verses to me
Ink sketch of man:
Handwritten poem on letter paper with drawing of tree:
' What shall I call thee - Song bird? Sweetheart mine?
How shall I woo thee? If, in truth I dare
To cast my shadow on that path of thine;
To braid my silver with thy golden hair.
How shall I woo thee? Stretching out my hands
As elms in spring stretch forth their boughs to greet
Wing'd wanderers from sunny far-off lands?
Ah, seek some younger, fresher shade, my Sweet!
The nest should be a bow'r of blossoms rare;
The shade should be all perfume, + the lay
Poured forth upon the summer-spiced air
Of some soft chime, where it is always May!
Alas! my boughs are tempest-tossed & shorn;
My roots have struck the rock - my leaves are shed
Shall winter mate with spring, or eve with morn?
Despair with hope? The living with the dead?
Yet come, if come thou wilt! For well-nigh due
Is God's great miracle, when earth & sky,
Mountain, + moor, + copse their youth renew -
And if the daisies, dearest, why not I?
I wak'd last night from dreams of spring, + lo!
The first dear crocus shows its head today;
And yonder limes are crimsoned with the glow
Of the imprisoned summer! Come away!
Away, dear love, to meet and greet the spring!
Unfold, ye bees! Laugh out in leaf, ye trees!
Come, perfum'd winds, your summer sweetness bring
From tropic isles beyond the Western seas!
Sing, sing ye thrushes! To our Northern Shore
Dear swallows, from the purple East fly fast!
Darkness, + doubt, + winter are no more -
The eternal youth of Hope is mine at last!
