 My own wild rose, to thee. For when my gaze first met thy gaze We were knee deep in June; The nights were only dreamier days. And all the hours in tune. l found thee, like the eglantine,
 Sweet, simple and apart, And from that hour thy smile hath been The flower that scents my heart. And ever since, when tendrils grace Young copse or Weathored bole With rosebu1s, straight I see thy face, And gaze into the soul. A natural bud Of love thou art;
 When gazing down l view, Deep hidden in thy fragrant heart, drop Of heavenly dew. Go, wild rose, to my wild rose dear, Bid her come swiftly and soon O, wonld that she were always here, It then were always June!
