Till The Day Dawn.
Why should I weary you, dear heart, with words, Words all discordant with a foolish pain? Thoughts cannot interrupt or prayers do wrong, And soft and silent as the summer rain Mine fall upon your pathway all day long. Giving as God gives, counting not the cost Of broken box or spilled and fragrant oil, I know that, spite of your strong carelessness, Rest must be sweeter, worthier must be toil, Touched with such mute, invisible caress. One of these days, our weary ways quite trod, Made free at last and unafraid of men, I shall draw near and reach to you my hand. And you? Ah! well, we shall be spirits then, I think you will be glad and understand.
