KATE TEMPLES SONG

KATE TEMPLES SONG
Only a touch and nothing
more;
All but never so touch d be-
fore!
Touch of lip, was it? Touch
of hand?
Either is easy to understand.
Earth may be shifted with
fire or FROST
Never the touch of true love
lost.
Only word, was it? Scarce
word
Musical whisper, softly heard.
Syllabled nothing - just
Twill outlast lift. and twill
laugh at death.
Love with so little can do
so much
Only a word, sweet! Only
touchl
