LOVE'S RESURRECTION DAY
Round among the quiet graves,
When the sun was low,
Love went grieving,
- Love who saves:
Did the sleepers know?
At his touch the flowers awoke,
At his tender call
Birds into sweet
singing broke,
And it did befall
From the blooming, bursting sod
All Love's dead arose,
And went flying
up to God
By a way Love knows.
Louise Chandler Moulton [1835-1908]
