MEMORIES
A window looking out to sea Beneath a misty moon, Witch-gold of dropping poplar leaves, Or blue of summer noon, A murmur of contented bees In neighbourly, acquainted trees. A salt wind keening in the night Across the harbour rim Through the dark cloister of the pines And the uncertain, dim White birches in the meadow' far, Where silences and whispers are.
A little gate, a winding path Through fern, and mint and bay, The muted boom of breakers on The sands of fading day, Soft amber dusk along the shore . . . A voice that I shall hear no morel —L. M. Montgomery.
