The Difference =

The sun rose clear and the wild birds
sang,
And the dew was sweet where the two
roads meet,
For riot Of roses redly glowed
Just where the forest pathway showed.
You came, and the picture was all
complete.
II was gay all day when my love was
by,
Where the two roads meet meath a
smiling sKy.
A cloud blew up from an angry sea,
And the birds were still on the wood >
ed hill:
The flowers deserted, dropped and
paled;
Down through the valley the east
wind walled
On the shrinking blossoms wrought
his will.
Il was gray all day when my love was
gone
Where the two roads meet. and l
walked alone.

FAIRY GOLD.

My thought Of you was like road
that rambles
Through copse and wilderness;
| should have seen the flowers, the
thorns and brambles
Have noticed less.
My faith In YOU Was as some noble
passage
Where soul ana music blend,
should have felt it true, unsklled
It's message
To comprehend.
My hope OF you was a strange city
gilded
With mirage temples fair;
| should have known its phantom
walls were bullded
OF desert air.
Though now the thought. the faith,
the hope ! measure
As incomplete ad vain.
! would not yield the greater waste
for treasure
or lesser gain.
Still IN the sluice through which time
slowly triokles
| strive at least to hold.
Caught from the sands of life in
nemory's rifles,
These grains of gold.
