Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Sparks From the Camp Fire: And Other Poems Spark I. Prelusive. Time´s with´ring hand upon the vet´ran´s brow, In furrowed lines its signal seal hath set; And forms of vigor once possessed, are now By palsied age and feebleness beset: And faithful hearts inured to sad regret, Attuned to catch the faintest trill of sound, From vanished years which they can ne´er forget; Still guard with reverent care each sacred mound´ Where sleep the brave and true, in Freedom´s hallowed ground. On fertile plain, in many a valley fair, Where balmy breezes woo the ripening grain; War´s thunders there once pealed ´mid lurid glare And Freedom wept above her noble slain. In mute appeal, a myriad graves remain, O´er which recurring years have swiftly rolled: And Spring with flow´ry tread oft came again, And Summer´s heat, and Winter´s piercing cold; While Autumn flung o´er all its rustling robe of gold. Although with ceaseless flow the cycling years, On Time´s fleet wing have to oblivion fled; Remembrance lives to wake our griefs and fears, Whene´er we seek communion with our dead, Tho´ pleasures brief before our gaze are spread, The passing hour may future woes foretell, When smiles will fade, and bitter tears be shed; The heart oft loveth with the past to dwell, And muse o´er vanished scenes ´neath Memorys, mystic spell.
