Memory.


There is gem in every heart,
However rough the casket be;
A little spark beyond the art
Of man to stain its. brilliancy.
However faint the torch may be
That lightens up the smouldering fire.
It answers back like melody
From some forgotten, hidden Tyre
a step, tone, a wayside flower,
A long forgotten, much loved song,
All bow beneath thy thrilling power
Welive the past in days to come.
We cannot disenthral thy sway
How oft unbidden dost thou steal,
With flashing light and darkest ray,
A pleasure or a pang reveal
Thou art store house full of treasure,
For each thou hast bygone token,
Perchance of tears-yea, without measure,
TO others pleasant words are spoken.
Oft thou showest ties unbroken,
Heart meeting heart in bonds Of home,
Bring back The very words once spoken
Before the light Of life had come.
We 20 with thee to some lone grave,
The treasured dust again We sec
There's naught we have thou dost not crave
Insatiate, grasping Memory
Thy power, alasl we cannot quell,
Thou art a part Of destiny,
Yes, Memory, thou hast spell
As lasting as eternity.
