City lulled asleep by the chime of passing years,

Sweeter smiles thy rest than the radiance round thy peers;

Only love and lovely remembrance here have place.

Time on thee lies lighter than music on men's ears;

Dawn and noon and sunset are one before thy face.

In a Garden

Baby, see the flowers!

– Baby sees

Fairer things than these,

Fairer though they be than dreams of ours.

Baby, hear the birds!

– Baby knows

Better songs than those,

Sweeter though they sound than sweetest words.

Baby, see the moon!

– Baby's eyes

Laugh to watch it rise,

Answering light with love and night with noon.
