Description
a maiden sat in the sunset glow
of the shadowy, beautiful Long Ago,
that we see through a mist of tears.
she sat and dreamed, with lips apart,

with thoughtful eyes and a beating heart,
of the mystical future years;
and brighter far than the sunset skies
was the vision seen by the maiden's eyes.

there were castles built of the summer air,
and beautiful voices were singing there,
in a soft and floating strain.
there were skies of azure and fields of green...
