A Sona of Memories,

Why should we care
For little love-trinkets and tresses of
hair;
Over sad memories signing along
When Maytime is music, and life is a
song?
When the winds blow the blooms through
the rain-sweetened air,
Why should we care?
Why should we care
For the grace of a dream, when all
dreams may be fair?
Over dead affairs alb signing to stand
With shadowy forms in a shadowy land?
Oh breath O. the blooms in the rain
sprinkled air
Why should we care?
Why should we care?
Is Mem'ry a star in the Night of Des-
pair?
Life is SO sweet to go signing along
When the threats O the wild birds are
thrilling with song!
Blow blooms, through the sunshiny,
rain-sweetened air.
Why should we care?
