One night I found you, who had known you long.

And suddenly and wonderfully, I knew

I loved you. In that moment, no one knew

Or ever can, our bliss, or how you lay

Long silent in my gentle arms, while the kiss,

That first kiss, still bewildered me. The few

Girls I had known had never raised in me

The fire. At last you stirred, looked up

Into my eyes, one long, long look,

And then away, and nestled closer.

Moments passed. I dared not breathe

Lest I disturb the happiness. Then later

After we could talk (all breathlessly) you said,

Tomorrow in the daylight, can I face you

Knowing this, our love, and still not fly to you

Before all other people!" And I laughed

And held you closer. " Let to-morrow be", I said.

To-night we need not think of that.

I love you, and have found you. 'Tis enough".
