Waiting.

    By Madison Julius Cawein



    Come to the hills, the woods are green -
    The heart is high when LOVE is sweet -
    There is a brook that flows between
    Two mossy trees where we can meet,
    Where we can meet and speak unseen.

    I hear you laughing in the lane -
    The heart is high when LOVE is sweet -
    The clover smells of sun and rain
    And spreads a carpet for our feet,
    Where we can sit and dream again.

    Come to the woods, the dusk is here -
    The heart is high when LOVE is sweet -
    A bird upon the branches near
    Sets music to our hearts' glad beat,
    Our hearts that beat with something dear.

    I hear your step; the lane is passed; -
    The heart is high when LOVE is sweet -
    The little stars come bright and fast,
    Like happy eyes to see us greet,
    To see us greet and kiss at last.
