FRIENDS

CLOUD MESSENGERS

Table of Contents

You clouds that with the wind your warden

Flying toward the Channel go,

Or ever the frost your fruit shall harden

To hail and sleet and driving snow,

Go seek one sunny old sweet garden—

An English garden that I know.

Therein perchance my Mother, straying

Among her dahlias, shall see

Your rainy gems in sunlight swaying

On flower of gold and emerald tree.

Then in her heart feel suddenly

Old love and laughter, like sunshine playing

Through tears of memory.
