|
UNDER the harvest moon, | |
When the soft silver | |
Drips shimmering | |
Over the garden nights, | |
Death, the gray mocker, |
|
Comes and whispers to you | |
As a beautiful friend | |
Who remembers. | |
|
Under the summer roses | |
When the flagrant crimson |
|
Lurks in the dusk | |
Of the wild red leaves, | |
Love, with little hands, | |
Comes and touches you | |
With a thousand memories, |
|
And asks you | |
Beautiful, unanswerable question |
