The Last Eve Of Summer |

________________________________________________
Title: The Last Eve Of Summer Author: John Greenleaf Whittier [More Titles by Whittier] Summer's last sun nigh unto setting shines Dreaming of long gone summer days like this, I sit alone, and watch the warm, sweet day "Will nevermore for me the seasons run Thou shouldst be here, or I should be with thee For this still hour, this sense of mystery far Wait, while these few swift-passing days fulfil The solemn joy that soul-communion feels Come then, in thought, if that alone may be, August 31, 1890.
