One golden twelfth part of a checkered year	A
One summer month of sunlight moonlight mirth	B
With not a hint of shadows lurking near	A
Or storm clouds brewing	C
	-
'T was a royal day	D
Voluptuous July held her lover Earth	B
With her warm arms upon her glowing breast	E
And twined herself about him as he lay	D
Smiling and panting in his dream stirred rest	E
She bound him with her limbs of perfect grace	F
And hid him with her trailing robe of green	G
And wound him in her long hair's shimmering sheen	G
And rained her ardent kisses on his face	F
	-
Through the glad glory of the summer land	H
Helen and I went wandering hand in hand	H
In winding paths hard by the ripe wheat field	I
White with the promise of a bounteous yield	I
Across the late shorn meadow down the hill	J
Red with the tiger lily blossoms till	J
We stood upon the borders of the lake	K
That like a pretty placid infant slept	L
Low at its base and little ripples crept	L
Along its surface just as dimples chase	F
Each other o'er an infant's sleeping face	F
	-
Helen in idle hours had learned to make	K
A thousand pretty feminine knick knacks	M
For brackets ottomans and toilet stands	N
Labor just suited to her dainty hands	N
That morning she had been at work in wax	M
Molding a wreath of flowers for my room	O
Taking her patterns from the living blows	P
In all their dewy beauty and sweet bloom	O
Fresh from my garden Fuchsia tulip rose	P
And trailing ivy grew beneath her touch	Q
Resembling the living plants as much	Q
As life is copied in the form of death	R
These lacking but the perfume and that breath	R
	-
And now the wreath was all completed save	S
The mermaid blossom of all flowerdom	O
A water lily dripping from the wave	S
And 'twas in search of it that we had come	O
Down to the lake and wandered on the beach	T
To see if any lilies grew in reach	T
Some broken stalks where flowers late had been	U
Some buds with all their beauties folded in	U
We found but not the treasure that we sought	V
And then we turned our footsteps to the spot	W
Where all impatient of its chain my boat	X
The Swan rocked asking to be set afloat	X
It was a dainty row boat strong yet light	Y
Each side a swan was painted snowy white	Y
A present from my uncle just before	Z
He sailed with Death to that mysterious strand	H
Where freighted ships go sailing evermore	Z
But none return to tell us of the land	H
	-
I freed the Swan and slowly rowed about	A2
Wherever sea weeds grass or green leaves lifted	B2
Their tips above the water So we drifted	B2
While Helen opposite leaned idly out	A2
And watched for lilies in the waves below	C2
And softly crooned some sweet and dreamy air	D2
That soothed me like a mother's lullabies	E2
I dropped the oars and closed my sun kissed eyes	E2
And let the boat go drifting here and there	D2
Oh happy day the last of that brief time	O
Of thoughtless youth when all the world seems bright	Y
Ere that disguis d angel men call Woe	C2
Leads the sad heart through valleys dark as night	Y
Up to the heights exalted and sublime	O
On each blest happy moment I am fain	F2
To linger long ere I pass on to pain	F2
And sorrow that succeeded	B2
	-
From day dreams	G2
As golden as the summer noontide's beams	G2
I was awakened by a voice that cried	H2
Strange ship ahoy Fair frigate whither bound	I2
And starting up I cast my gaze around	I2
And saw a sail boat o'er the water glide	H2
Close to the Swan like some live thing of grace	F
And from it looked the glowing handsome face	F
Of Vivian	J2
	-
Beauteous sirens of the sea	K2
Come sail across the raging main with me	K2
He laughed and leaning drew our drifting boat	X
Beside his own There now step in he said	L2
I'll land you anywhere you want to go	C2
My boat is safer far than yours I know	C2
And much more pleasant with its sails all spread	L2
The Swan We'll take the oars and let it float	X
Ashore at leisure You Maurine sit there	D2
Miss Helen here Ye gods and little fishes	M2
I've reached the height of pleasure and my wishes	N2
Adieu despondency farewell to care	D2
	-
'T was done so quickly that was Vivian's way	D
He did not wait for either yea or nay	D
He gave commands and left you with no choice	O2
But just to do the bidding of his voice	O2
His rare kind smile low tones and manly face	F
Lent to his quick imperiousness a grace	F
And winning charm completely stripping it	P2
Of what might otherwise have seemed unfit	P2
Leaving no trace of tyranny but just	Q2
That nameless force that seemed to say You must	Q2
Suiting its pretty title of The Dawn	R2
So named he said that it might rhyme with Swan	S2
Vivian's sail boat was carpeted with blue	T2
While all its sails were of a pale rose hue	T2
The daintiest craft that flirted with the breeze	U2
A poet's fancy in an hour of ease	U2
	-
Whatever Vivian had was of the best	E
His room was like some Sultan's in the East	V2
His board was always spread as for a feast	V2
Whereat each meal he was both host and guest	E
He would go hungry sooner than he'd dine	W2
At his own table if 'twere illy set	X2
He so loved things artistic in design	W2
Order and beauty all about him Yet	X2
So kind he was if it befell his lot	W
To dine within the humble peasant's cot	W
He made it seem his native soil to be	K2
And thus displayed the true gentility	K2
	-
Under the rosy banners of the Dawn	R2
Around the lake we drifted on and on	S2
It was a time for dreams and not for speech	T
And so we floated on in silence each	T
Weaving the fancies suiting such a day	D
Helen leaned idly o'er the sail boat's side	H2
And dipped her rosy fingers in the tide	H2
And I among the cushions half reclined	Y2
Half sat and watched the fleecy clouds at play	D
While Vivian with his blank book opposite	Z2
In which he seemed to either sketch or write	Y
Was lost in inspiration of some kind	Y2
	-
No time no change no scene can e'er efface	F
My mind's impression of that hour and place	F
It stands out like a picture O'er the years	A3
Black with their robes of sorrow veiled with tears	B3
Lying with all their lengthened shapes between	G
Untouched undimmed I still behold that scene	G
Just as the last of Indian summer days	C3
Replete with sunlight crowned with amber haze	C3
Followed by dark and desolate December	D3
Through all the months of winter we remember	D3
	-
The sun slipped westward That peculiar change	E3
Which creeps into the air and speaks of night	Y
While yet the day is full of golden light	Y
We felt steal o'er us	F3
Vivian broke the spell	G3
Of dream fraught silence throwing down his book	H3
Young ladies please allow me to arrange	E3
These wraps about your shoulders I know well	G3
The fickle nature of our atmosphere	A
Her smile swift followed by a frown or tear	D2
And go prepared for changes Now you look	H3
Like like oh where's a pretty simile	G3
Had you a pocket mirror here you'd see	K2
How well my native talent is displayed	I3
In shawling you Red on the brunette maid	I3
Blue on the blonde and quite without design	W2
Oh where is that comparison of mine	W2
Well like a June rose and a violet blue	G3
In one bouquet I fancy that will do	G3
And now I crave your patience and a boon	J3
Which is to listen while I read my rhyme	O
A floating fancy of the summer time	O
'Tis neither witty wonderful nor wise	E2
So listen kindly but don't criticise	E2
My maiden effort of the afternoon	J3
	-
If all the ships I have at sea	E2
Should come a sailing home to me	E2
Ah well the harbor could not hold	K3
So many sails as there would be	E2
If all my ships came in from sea	E2
	-
If half my ships came home from sea	E2
And brought their precious freight to me	E2
Ah well I should have wealth as great	L3
As any king who sits in state	L3
So rich the treasures that would be	E2
In half my ships now out at sea	E2
	-
If just one ship I have at sea	E2
Should come a sailing home to me	E2
Ah well the storm clouds then might frown	M3
For if the others all went down	M3
Still rich and proud and glad I'd be	E2
If that one ship came back to me	E2
	-
If that one ship went down at sea	E2
And all the others came to me	E2
Weighed down with gems and wealth untold	K3
With glory honor riches gold	K3
The poorest soul on earth I'd be	E2
If that one ship came not to me	E2
	-
O skies be calm O winds blow free	E2
Blow all my ships safe home to me	E2
But if thou sendest some a wrack	N3
To never more come sailing back	N3
Send any all that skim the sea	E2
But bring my love ship home to me	E2
	-
Helen was leaning by me and her head	L2
Rested against my shoulder as he read	L2
I stroked her hair and watched the fleecy skies	E2
And when he finished did not turn my eyes	E2
I felt too happy and too shy to meet	O3
His gaze just then I said 'Tis very sweet	O3
And suits the day does it not Helen dear	A
But Helen voiceless did not seem to hear	P3
'Tis strange I added how you poets sing	C
So feelingly about the very thing	C
You care not for and dress up an ideal	G3
So well it looks a living breathing real	G3
Now to a listener your love song seemed	Q3
A heart's out pouring yet I've heard you say	E2
Almost the opposite or that you deemed	Q3
Position honor glory power fame	O
Gained without loss of conscience or good name	O
The things to live for	Z
Have you Well you may	E2
Laughed Vivian but 'twas years or months ago	C2
And Solomon says wise men change you know	C2
I now speak truth if she I hold most dear	A
Slipped from my life and no least hope were left	R3
My heart would find the years more lonely here	P3
Than if I were of wealth fame friends bereft	R3
And sent an exile to a foreign land	H
	-
His voice was low and measured as he spoke	S3
New unknown chords of melody awoke	S3
Within my soul I felt my heart expand	H
With that sweet fullness born of love I turned	T3
To hide the blushes on my cheek that burned	T3
And leaning over Helen breathed her name	O
She lay so motionless I thought she slept	L
But as I spoke I saw her eyes unclose	E2
And o'er her face a sudden glory swept	L
And a slight tremor thrilled all through her frame	O
Sweet friend I said your face is full of light	Y
What were the dreams that made your eyes so bright	Y
	-
She only smiled for answer and arose	E2
From her reclining posture at my side	H2
Threw back the clust'ring ringlets from her face	E2
With a quick gesture full of easy grace	E2
And turning spoke to Vivian Will you guide	H2
The boat up near that little clump of green	G
Off to the right There's where the lilies grow	C2
We quite forgot our errand here Maurine	E2
And our few moments have grown into hours	E2
What will Aunt Ruth think of our ling'ring so	C2
There that will do now I can reach the flowers	E2
	-
Hark just hear that and Vivian broke forth singing	C
Row brothers row The six o'clock bell's ringing	C
Who ever knew three hours to go so fast	U3
In all the annals of the world before	Z
I could have sworn not over one had passed	U3
Young ladies I am forced to go ashore	Z
I thank you for the pleasure you have given	J2
This afternoon has been a glimpse of heaven	J2
Good night sweet dreams and by your gracious leave	V3
I'll pay my compliments to morrow eve	V3
	-
A smile a bow and he had gone his way	E2
And in the waning glory of the day	E2
Down cool green lanes and through the length'ning shadows	E2
Silent we wandered back across the meadows	E2
The wreath was finished and adorned my room	O
Long afterward the lilies' copied bloom	O
Was like a horrid specter in my sight	Y
Staring upon me morning noon and night	Y
	-
The sun went down The sad new moon rose up	W3
And passed before me like an empty cup	W3
The Great Unseen brims full of pain or bliss	E2
And gives His children saying Drink of this	E2
	-
A light wind from the open casement fanned	H
My brow and Helen's as we hand in hand	H
Sat looking out upon the twilight scene	G
In dreamy silence Helen's dark blue eyes	E2
Like two lost stars that wandered from the skies	E2
Some night adown the meteor's shining track	N3
And always had been grieving to go back	N3
Now gazed up wistfully at heaven's dome	O
And seemed to recognize and long for home	O
Her sweet voice broke the silence Wish Maurine	E2
Before you speak you know the moon is new	G3
And anything you wish for will come true	G3
Before it wanes I do believe the sign	W2
Now tell me your wish and I'll tell you mine	W2
	-
I turned and looked up at the slim young moon	J3
And with an almost superstitious heart	X3
I sighed Oh new moon help me by thine art	X3
To grow all grace and goodness and to be	E2
Worthy the love a true heart proffers me	E2
Then smiling down I said Dear one my boon	J3
I fear is quite too silly or too sweet	O3
For my repeating so we'll let it stay	E2
Between the moon and me But if I may	E2
I'll listen now to your wish Tell me please	E2
	-
All suddenly she nestled at my feet	O3
And hid her blushing face upon my knees	E2
Then drew my hand against her glowing cheek	Y3
And leaning on my breast began to speak	Y3
Half sighing out the words my tortured ear	P3
Reached down to catch while striving not to hear	P3
	-
Can you not guess who 'twas about Maurine	E2
Oh my sweet friend you must ere this have seen	G
The love I tried to cover from all eyes	E2
And from myself Ah foolish little heart	X3
As well it might go seeking for some art	X3
Whereby to hide the sun in noonday skies	E2
When first the strange sound of his voice I heard	Z3
Looked on his noble face and touched his hand	H
My slumb'ring heart thrilled through and through and stirred	Z3
As if to say 'I hear and understand '	-
And day by day mine eyes were blest beholding	C
The inner beauty of his life unfolding	C
In countless words and actions that portrayed	I3
The noble stuff of which his soul was made	I3
And more and more I felt my heart upreaching	C
Toward the truth drawn gently by his teaching	C
As flowers are drawn by sunlight And there grew	G3
A strange shy something in its depths I knew	G3
At length was love because it was so sad	A4
And yet so sweet and made my heart so glad	A4
	-
Yet seemed to pain me Then for very shame	O
Lest all should read my secret and its name	O
I strove to hide it in my breast away	E2
Where God could see it only But each day	E2
It seemed to grow within me and would rise	E2
Like my own soul and look forth from my eyes	E2
Defying bonds of silence and would speak	C
In its red lettered language on my cheek	C
If but his name was uttered You were kind	Y2
My own Maurine as you alone could be	E2
So long the sharer of my heart and mind	Y2
While yet you saw in seeming not to see	E2
In all the years we have been friends my own	B4
And loved as women very rarely do	G3
My heart no sorrow and no joy has known	B4
It has not shared at once in full with you	G3
And I so longed to speak to you of this	E2
When first I felt its mingled pain and bliss	E2
Yet dared not lest you knowing him should say	E2
In pity for my folly 'Lack a day	E2
You are undone because no mortal art	X3
Can win the love of such a lofty heart '	-
And so I waited silent and in pain	F2
Till I could know I did not love in vain	F2
And now I know beyond a doubt or fear	A
Did he not say 'If she I hold most dear	A
Slipped from my life and no least hope were left	R3
My heart would find the years more lonely here	P3
Than if I were of wealth fame friends bereft	R3
And sent an exile to a foreign land'	R3
Oh darling you must love to understand	R3
The joy that thrilled all through me at those words	E2
It was as if a thousand singing birds	E2
Within my heart broke forth in notes of praise	E2
I did not look up but I knew his gaze	E2
Was on my face and that his eyes must see	E2
The joy I felt almost transfigured me	E2
He loves me loves me so the birds kept singing	C
And all my soul with that sweet strain is ringing	C
If there were added but one drop of bliss	E2
No more my cup would hold and so this eve	V3
I made a wish that I might feel his kiss	E2
Upon my lips ere yon pale moon should leave	V3
The stars all lonely having waned away	E2
Too old and weak and bowed with care to stay	E2
	-
Her voice sighed into silence While she spoke	C
My heart writhed in me praying she would cease	E2
Each word she uttered falling like a stroke	C
On my bare soul And now a hush like death	R
Save that 'twas broken by a quick drawn breath	R
Fell 'round me but brought not the hoped for peace	E2
For when the lash no longer leaves its blows	E2
The flesh still quivers and the blood still flows	E2
	-
She nestled on my bosom like a child	R3
And 'neath her head my tortured heart throbbed wild	R3
With pain and pity She had told her tale	G3
Her self deceiving story to the end	R3
How could I look down on her as she lay	E2
So fair and sweet and lily like and frail	G3
A tender blossom on my breast and say	E2
Nay you are wrong you do mistake dear friend	R3
'Tis I am loved not you Yet that were truth	C4
And she must know it later	D3
Should I speak	C
And spread a ghastly pallor o'er the cheek	C
Flushed now with joy And while I doubting pondered	R3
She spoke again Maurine I oft have wondered	R3
Why you and Vivian were not lovers He	E2
Is all a heart could ask its king to be	E2
And you have beauty intellect and youth	C4
I think it strange you have not loved each other	D3
Strange how he could pass by you for another	D3
Not half so fair or worthy Yet I know	C2
A loving Father pre arranged it so	C2
I think my heart has known him all these years	E2
And waited for him And if when he came	O
It had been as a lover of my friend	R3
I should have recognized him all the same	O
As my soul mate and loved him to the end	R3
Hiding my grief and forcing back my tears	E2
Till on my heart slow dropping day by day	E2
Unseen they fell and wore it all away	E2
And so a tender Father kept him free	E2
With all the largeness of his love for me	E2
For me unworthy such a precious gift	R3
Yet I will bend each effort of my life	D4
To grow in grace and goodness and to lift	R3
My soul and spirit to his lofty height	R3
So to deserve that holy name his wife	D4
Sweet friend it fills my whole heart with delight	R3
To breathe its long hid secret in your ear	P3
Speak my Maurine and say you love to hear	P3
The while she spoke my active brain gave rise	E2
To one great thought of mighty sacrifice	E2
And self denial Oh it blanched my cheek	C
And wrung my soul and from my heart it drove	E4
All life and feeling Coward like I strove	E4
To send it from me but I felt it cling	C
And hold fast on my mind like some live thing	C
And all the Self within me felt its touch	Q
And cried No no I cannot do so much	Q
I am not strong enough there is no call	G3
And then the voice of Helen bade me speak	C
And with a calmness born of nerve I said	R3
Scarce knowing what I uttered Sweetheart all	G3
Your joys and sorrows are with mine own wed	R3
I thank you for your confidence and pray	E2
I may deserve it always But dear one	J2
Something perhaps our boat ride in the sun	J2
Has set my head to aching I must go	C2
To bed directly and you will I know	C2
Grant me your pardon and another day	E2
We'll talk of this together Now good night	R3
And angels guard you with their wings of light	R3
	-
I kissed her lips and held her on my heart	R3
And viewed her as I ne'er had done before	Z
I gazed upon her features o'er and o'er	D3
Marked her white tender face her fragile form	O
Like some frail plant that withers in the storm	O
Saw she was fairer in her new found joy	F4
Than e'er before and thought Can I destroy	F4
God's handiwork or leave it at the best	R3
A broken harp while I close clasp my bliss	E2
I bent my head and gave her one last kiss	E2
And sought my room and found there such relief	G4
As sad hearts feel when first alone with grief	G4
	-
The moon went down slow sailing from my sight	R3
And left the stars to watch away the night	R3
O stars sweet stars so changeless and serene	G
What depths of woe your pitying eyes have seen	G
The proud sun sets and leaves us with our sorrow	C2
To grope alone in darkness till the morrow	C2
The languid moon e'en if she deigns to rise	E2
Soon seeks her couch grown weary of our sighs	E2
But from the early gloaming till the day	E2
Sends golden liveried heralds forth to say	E2
He comes in might the patient stars shine on	S2
Steadfast and faithful from twilight to dawn	R2
And as they shone upon Gethsemane	R2
And watched the struggle of a God like soul	G3
Now from the same far height they shone on me	E2
And saw the waves of anguish o'er me roll	G3
	-
The storm had come upon me all unseen	R2
No sound of thunder fell upon my ear	P3
No cloud arose to tell me it was near	A
But under skies all sunlit and serene	R2
I floated with the current of the stream	O
And thought life all one golden haloed dream	O
When lo a hurricane with awful force	E2
Swept swift upon its devastating course	E2
Wrecked my frail bark and cast me on the wave	S
Where all my hopes had found a sudden grave	S
Love makes us blind and selfish otherwise	E2
I had seen Helen's secret in her eyes	E2
So used I was to reading every look	C
In her sweet face as I would read a book	C
But now made sightless by love's blinding rays	E2
I had gone on unseeing to the end	R3
Where Pain dispelled the mist of golden haze	E2
That walled me in and lo I found my friend	R3
Who journeyed with me at my very side	R3
Had been sore wounded to the heart while I	H4
Both deaf and blind saw not nor heard her cry	H4
And then I sobbed O God I would have died	R3
To save her this And as I cried in pain	R2
There leaped forth from the still white realm of Thought	R3
Where Conscience dwells that unimpassioned spot	R3
As widely different from the heart's domain	R2
As north from south the impulse felt before	Z
And put away but now it rose once more	Z
In greater strength and said Heart would'st thou prove	I4
What lips have uttered Then go lay thy love	J4
On Friendship's altar as thy offering	C
Nay cried my heart ask any other thing	C
Ask life itself 'twere easier sacrifice	E2
But ask not love for that I cannot give	K4
	-
But spoke the voice the meanest insect dies	E2
And is no hero heroes dare to live	L4
When all that makes life sweet is snatched away	E2
So with my heart in converse till the day	E2
In gold and crimson billows rose and broke	C
The voice of Conscience all unwearied spoke	C
Love warred with Friendship heart with Conscience fought	R3
Hours rolled away and yet the end was not	R3
And wily Self tricked out like tenderness	E2
Sighed Think how one whose life thou wert to bless	E2
Will be cast down and grope in doubt and fear	A
Wouldst thou wound him to give thy friend relief	G4
Can wrong make right	R3
Nay Conscience said but Pride	R3
And Time can heal the saddest hurts of Love	J4
While Friendship's wounds gape wide and yet more wide	R3
And bitter fountains of the spirit prove	I4
	-
At length exhausted with the wearing strife	D4
I cast the new found burden of my life	D4
On God's broad breast and sought that deep repose	E2
That only he who watched with sorrow knows	E2
