Love lives beyond
The tomb, the earth, which fades like dew--
I love the fond,
The faithful, and the true.
Love
lives in sleep,
'Tis hapiness of healthy dreams,
Eve's dews may
weep,
But love delightful seems.
'Tis seen in flowers,
And in the
even's pearly dew
On earth's green hours,
And in the heaven's
eternal blue.
'Tis heard in spring
When light and sunbeams, warm and
kind,
On angel's wing
Brings love and music to the wind.
And
where's the voice
So young, so beautiful, and sweet
As nature's
choice,
Where spring and lovers meet?
Love lives beyond
The tomb,
the earth, the flowers, and dew.
I love the fond,
The faithful, young, and
true.
