REMOVE THY VEIL

Remove thy veil, O’ heart, and shine!

For winters are but old shy suns

As is despair the grudging vine

That curls and curls but grapes; has none!



That haze you see in every slope

Is but the past that long had gone

Why then, you hide that seed of hope

And not allow the dreams to run?



Come shine with rays of joy an’ play

On dusky hills an’ dales of spring

And soon you’ll be the break of day

In which lovebirds do bathe and sing!



Our goal, O’ heart, is one and fair

Thy part is but thy love to spread

Amongst all that live out there,

And mine will be to free that love

And take it where no eagles dare!

Love is all seasons in disguise.
