Stenila Simon Poet Lyric

Land of the Lemon-Trees

I know the land where the lemon-trees flower
Where dew-drops shower 
On the pure lily-flowers! 
There flows a glistening life-giving river
On each wave a sliver 
Of light that delivers
Glorious warmth that quells trepid heart-aches
Every eve a dawn-break
Every breath a keepsake. 
Do you know the land where the lemon-trees flower?
