Under the Leaves.

Into the lap of the bare brown earth,
Stripped ofhcr beautiful golden sheaves
As if in sympathy for her dcarth,
Flutter and nestle the autumn leaves
And the lonely landscape hides away
Her face, deep lined with sad decay,
Under the leaves!
Down from the tall old forest trees
The leaiy showers gently fail,
And taking the wings of the passing
breeze
Softly they cover the earth like II pail
All, would that we the past might fold,
OF blightcd hopes nnd dreams untold
Under the leaves
Under the leaves of the flying years.
Oh, strive, thou weary soul, to lay
The care and sorrow, the bitter tears,
The dreary burden of yesterday
Away deep down in the hearts's recess,
Under the leaves of forgetfulness,
Under the leaves
