TO MY MOTHERS MEMORY.

My Mother! weary years have passed, since last
met thy gentle smile; and sadly then
II fell upon my young and joyous heart
There was a mortal pacness on thy cheek,
And well knew, they bore thee far away
With a vain hope 10 mend the broken springs
The springs Of life. And bitter tears shed
In chdhood's shor-lived agony Of grief,
Wheu soothing voices said. that thou vert gone,
And That must not weep for thou vert best.
Full many flower has bloomed upon thy grave,
And many a'Winter's snow has melt d there;
Childhood has passed, and Youth is passing now,
And scatiers paler roses on my path
Dim. and more dim, my fancy paints thy form,
Thy mild blue eye, thy cheek so thin and fair,
Touched, when saw thee last, with hectic flush,
Telling in solemn beauty, Of the grave.
Mine ear hath lost the accents of Thy voice,
And family o'er my memory comes at times
A glimpse of joys, that had their source in thee,
Like one brief strain Of some forgotten song
And then al times blessed dream comes down,
Missioned, perhaps, by thee from brighter realms.
And wearing all the senblance Of thy form,
Gives to my heart the joy Of days gone by.
With gushing tears wake; o, thou art not
Unseen and bodilcss around my path,
Watching with brooding love about thy child!
is it not so, my Mother! will not
Think it fancy, wild, and vain and false,
That spirit good and pure as thine, descend
Like guardian angels, round the few they loved,
OF intercepting coming woes and still
Joying on every beam that gilds our paths;
And waving snowy pinions Ger our heads
When midnight siumbers close our aching eyes.
