TO MY SISTER

 

THERE IS A SOFT AND
GENTLE FORM,

WHICH OFT BEFORE MY
MEMORY SPRINGS,

RECALLING CHILDHOODS
HAPPY HOURS,

WITH ALL THEIR BRIGHT
IMAGININGS,

THAT STILL TO ME A
GUARDIAN SAINT,

CALL'S BACK THE THOUGHT
THAT'S PRONE TO ERR,

FORBIDING OUGHT THAT E'ER
COULD CAUSE,

A SISTER'S BLUSH, A
SISTER'S TEAR.
