Missing


Do you remember once upon a night?
It was in the time of coming winter's frost.
And wildly fierce and cold the sharp wind tossed
And wished madly in the moon's chill light.
Do you remember when you caught a sight
of me, and I have wandered far and lost
my way, all faint of heart, and was much crossed
in life's clear plans that I had sought with might?
You said kind words and took my weaned hand,
And all your gentleness was life to me
Who had been lost in night's all stormy sea.
And then again I hoped and worked and planned
By your dear help my tangled feet to free.
I've not forgot your love, do you understand?
