And Now I Write

And now I write my last line of the day
And turn to England far away
And send my love by moonlight and sea
And dream she whispers back to me
And words sweet fragranted to and fro
And roses and hibiscus abloom
And peace only those who want it can know
And fore me transfigured in the room
The moonlight naked as her form
The trembling tree, the heavenly calm,
The diamond jubilee of sweeter sovereignity
The diamond jubilee of sweeter sovereignity
