♦ SOME TIME. ♦
Last night, my darling, as you slept,
I thought I heard you sigh,
And to your little crib I crept
And watched a space thereby;
And then I stooped and kissed your
brow—
For oh! I love you so—
You are too young to know it now,
But some time you shall know!
Seme time, when, in a darkened place
Where others come to weep,
Your eyes shall look upon a face
Calm in eternal sleep;
The speechless lips, the wrnikled brow
The paitent smile shall show—
You are too young to know now,
But some time you shall know!
Look backward, then, into the years,
You see me here tonight—
See, O my darling! how my tears
Are falling as I write;
And feel once more upon your brow
The kiss of long ago—
You are too young to know it now,
But some time you shall know!
—Eugene Field.
