[bodytext] => I divine days when this mitt may caress you; As the haze gushes feathery flakes, As flurries sheet elegant tress of citrine hue, As your charming hymns transcend wintry lakes, Your radiant eyes kindle the pale, frosty air; Their amber waves cloak the lurid pier – The dock’s outermost, foggy reaches – mute; no blare, Accent your moonlit self, crystal clear. I divine days when these fingers brush your curls – Those heavenly, fine clusters of hair; Dazzling summer strands, and tainted December pearls – To gaze again at your eyes’ tawny glare. Maiden, your brilliant pose sets my world agleam; You, I approach, but why tread away? Your glow turns to shadow, from light to dark – a dream? The snow welcomes rain, as white sires gray. A single rose held, I kneel down on damp ground, The downpour drenches many a tear; I stare at the grave décor – no life can be found; No grass, stiff trees – my fate – this drab frontier. The moon, full, still is shining; not raved. No maiden found of light-brown eyes and hair citrine; I place the one dying rose by a slate, engraved, “Here lies our beloved Madeline.” I divine days when I may touch you – again.
