WHEN TWILIGHT COMES WITH DREAMS

 O LET the music play a little longer, And sweetheart clasp me closer to your breast. Life is strong, and death; but love is stronger — And sweeter, sweeter, rest.

 Oh, sweet is rest when love is watching over, And twlight comes with dreams that reassure; Weaving out of the silences that hover Hopes which must endure.
