BALLAD FOR G. s.

 { can recall the shimmer of a
 night
 When you had caught the star
 light in your eyes,
 When all the husky things you said
 were right. When there was time for us to be unwise.
 can recall your laughter down
 the street.
 The gay, delicious promise in your
 voice,
 When boredom was in full and mad
 retreat,
 And we could make but one en- raptured choice.
 You have not changed, your love-
 Illness has lowered,
 Your laughter still is like silver
 bell,
 And Foes and Fate can never leave
 us covered
 If we relive the Time when all
 was well ....
 when no Inns held as strange and
 sweet 8 wine
 As your mouth made when it was
 held to minel
