Reminders

 THE sun, the wind, and rain

The trees, the flowers and skies,

A grosbeak’s note

From its flaming throat

And my bosom¹ is tossed with sighs.

Eyebeams and locks of hair

The curve of a white cheek near,

Each day of the week

Filled full of the sweet

Reminders² of you, my dear.

The crowd and the city street,

A hill that is bleak³ and bare.

A fleecy cloud

Floating high and proud

And I think of my darling’s hair.

A voice that is strangely like

Your own that I turn to see;

A silvery laugh,

Convincing me half

My dreams have been fooling me.
