| A Forest Rendezvous |
| | | William Griffith |
| |
| |
| THEY said someone was waiting; | |
| And at the trysting oak | |
| Sudden enchanting voices | |
| Leaf-lightly spoke. | |
| |
| Daylong she had been coming, | 5 |
| And all the forest sang | |
| Of beauty: elfin-softly | |
| The bluebells rang. | |
| |
| Nightlong she was in shadow, | |
| She who went away | 10 |
| As the moon does in the silver | |
| Veils of day. | |
| |
| I see no course to follow, | |
| Alas, nor where to find | |
| The silver way she vanished, | 15 |
Being blind.
