Suggested by Ma. Clcmmcr's poem, "A Perfe
Dny."D
ny BESSIE BEAcE.
All, can II be q perfect day
Has ever dawned upon my way7
! soy TO Memory, go find
Aud bring to my forgetful mind,
That day-that dny so long ago,
That distant ages seem 10 flow
Between my life and that Eled morn,
When perfect bliss to me was born.
A perfect dayH I'm waking now,
And DER my weary tme.worn brow.
glimpse OF something vague unreal
ln misty shadows seem 10 steal.
I've grown 30 aged since that day,
cannot tell the strange old way;
Cropping " find the substance there
Where only shadows Ill the air.
There was dny-I'll pause and think;
Where, where II dawned-I almost shrink
Ny pulses stop; my heart grows numb,
And even memory seems dumb.
She cannot. dare not, name the place
saw the form, and loved the face:
when heaven with earth was welded there,
And one brief hour the earth Wa fair.
It was not here grope in vain
To iiid that holy spot again:
I've lost the way aud strange and Wild
Are all tie paths a. tota child.
When just In sight OF home and rest,
She wnnders on in fearful quest,
Ofloying tone and tender press,
OF mothers kisses aud cares,
Twas autum then, and bnrnirbed gems
Hung on the trees like disdens;
The artists hand made such rare tints,
The naples caught the ruby glints;
Aud bronze, and gold, and sapphire Ebono
Above our heads, where still and lone,
with language mute our hesrts and eyes
Discoursed by tender signs and signs.
o, for one hour OF that old time,
Ont echo from that far OF cline.
One golden moment spared from pain
10 recollect myself again.
To think, TO speak, to know, and feel,
The od.time memory's gladdened peal !;
To resurrect my hearts dead weight,
That's breaking with It's crushing freight
Not here, not here shall perfect day"
Light Mp my sad, benightcd way;
An alien stranger, lost am l.
And wearily the days 70 by.
with yenrning eyes look toward home,
Beneath the blue sky's loving dome;
one pressure from the earth's warm breast
Shall soOth my throbbing heart 10 rest.
