A poem by William Lisle Bowles

Stanzas For Music

________________________________________________
Title:     Stanzas For Music
Author: William Lisle Bowles [More Titles by Bowles]

I trust the happy hour will come,
That shall to peace thy breast restore;
And that we two, beloved friend,
Shall one day meet to part no more.

It grieves me most, that parting thus,
All my soul feels I dare not speak;
And when I turn me from thy sight,
The tears in silence wet my cheek.

Yet I look forward to the time,
That shall each wound of sorrow heal;
When I may press thee to my heart,
And tell thee all that now I feel.





[The end]
William Lisle Bowles's poem: Stanzas For Music
