THINK OF ME.
List when the wind in summertime is sighing,
And a wealth of verdant bloom is on the lea;
Seek the path our feet together used to wander,
And think of me.
Watch when the sunset’s tender glow of evening
Fades into twilight’s dreamy ecstasy,
And thy soul is soothed by nature’s subtle fulness,
And think of me.
And when the shadowy arms of night enfoldeth
The hills, and darken o’er the throbbing sea;
Steal tenderly out beneath the stars’ pale beaming,
And think of me.
Go when the autumn leaves are sadly falling,
And the melancholy winds appeal to thee,
And stillness broods where grass and flowers are dying,
And think of me.
And when thy soul to music’s touch is thrilling,
And thy voice repeats in tenderest melody
The songs we loved when you and I were dreaming,
And think of me.
Weep when the dreary autumn rain is falling,
And sobbing winds are strewing o’er the lea
A wealth of golden leaves and pale dead flowers,
And think of me.
And when thy day of life is slowly waning
Into the mystic light of the eternity,
Call back the dreamy years of life’s glad morning,
And think of me.
