Dorothea

1888-1912

A deeper crimson in the rose,A deeper blue in sky and sea,And ever, as the summer goes,A deeper loss in losing thee!

A deeper music in the strainOf hermit-thrush from lonely tree;And deeper grows the sense of gainMy life has found in having thee.

A deeper love, a deeper rest,A deeper joy in all I see;And ever deeper in my breastA silver song that comes from thee!

Seal Harbour, August 1, 1912.
