HOW IT STRUCK ELLA.

Love. when we met, twas like two planets meet.
Strange chaos followed: body, soul and heart
Seemed shaken, thilied and startled by that
greeting,
Old ties, ola dreams. old aims, all torn apart
And wrenched away, left nothing there the while,
But the great shining story of your smile.
II knew no past, Twas all blurred, blank waste.
Y l asked no future. Twas binding glare.
I only clasped the preseut; as men tastr
Some stimulating wine, aud lose all care
tasted loves elixir, and seemed
Dwelling in some strange land, like one who
dreamed
Il was n god. like separate existence
Our world was set apart In some fair cline,
! had no will, no purpose, no Resistance
/ only knew I loved you for all time.
The earth seemed something foreign and afar
And we two soveregns, dwelling in a star.
II s so sad. 70 strange, almost doubt
That all those years could be before me met
Do you not wish that we could blot them out,
Obli,erate them, wholly, and forget
That we had any part in life until
We clasped each other with loves rapture
thrily
Ny being trembled TO Its very center
At that first kiss. Cod reason stood aside
With folded arms to let a Grand Love enter
In my souls sacred chamber to abide.
Ets great High Priest, my FIRST love, and my
last,
There on It's altar consumed my past
And all my life lay upon its shrine
The best emotions Of my heart and brain
Whatever gifts and graces may be mine
No secret thought, or memory, retain,
But give them all for dear loves precious sake;
Complete us-render of the whole make
