|
|
<p>Silently the shades of evening<br>
|
|
Gather round my lowly door;<br>
|
|
Silently they bring before me<br>
|
|
Faces I shall see no more.</p>
|
|
<p>O the lost, the unforgotten,<br>
|
|
Though the world be oft forgot!<br>
|
|
O the shrouded and the lonely,<br>
|
|
In our hearts they perish not!</p>
|
|
<p>Living in the silent hours,<br>
|
|
Where our spirits only blend,<br>
|
|
They, unlinked with earthly trouble,<br>
|
|
We, still hoping for its end.</p>
|
|
<p>How such holy memories cluster,<br>
|
|
Like the stars when storms are past,<br>
|
|
Pointing up to that fair heaven,<br>
|
|
We may hope to gain at last.</p>
