REVERIE.
I am sitting in the gloaming,Sipping honey from Life’s flowers;Gathering sweetness for the future;I will store it in Love’s bowers.Nothing bitter will I gatherTo confront me by and by.Though dark clouds are overhanging,Shining is the sun in sky.All the little clouds, and shadowsI will drive from out my heart;For I love the sunshine better,From no sunbeam will I part.Though the raindrops may be falling,Though the day is dark and drear;It will clear before Life’s evening,And Life’s sun again appear.
