THE LIGHT of spring
On the emerald earth,
A man, a maid,
And a mood of mirth,
A foolish jest,
That a smile amends -Â
It took no more
To make us friends.
An evening breeze,
The year in bloom,
Lips quickly met
In the garden's gloom;
The trees about us,
The stars above -Â
It took no more
To teach us love.
Frost in the air -Â
The air like wine -Â
Go you your way,
And I'll go mine.
Lightly we part
Who lightly met -
What more is needed,
When both forget?
Song
