The kiss still burns upon my brow, That kiss of long ago, When in the flush of love's first hour He said he loved me so. Another burns yet deeper still, The kiss of wedded bliss, When soul met soul in rapture sweet— Oh, pure love's burning kiss! The third was laid away with him, A kiss for heaven's day, (O heart abide God's way)— When in the life beyond earth's change, Beyond these mysteries sad and strange, New life will spring from out the old, New thoughts will larger truth unfold, And love have endless sway. |
