Hidden Beauty

HIDDEN   BEAUTY 


Mystery in  the  wood dark
With clear sky peeping through
What does the next path hide?
What  will the leaves reveal?


Song  from a meadowlark?
Deep  lake   velvet  blue?
But   the breeze has  sighed
And tries  to  all conceal -


I must try to closer  hark
Before I sadly say adieu
To my unravished sylvan bride
And  a  farewell  glance I steal.
