Anniversary


This day of ours
  1
Is still our day;
Immortal flowers,
And fadeless bay,
Crown it; though tears
  5
Be on them now.
The faithful years,
The heart's own vow,
Stand firm behind
  9
Us as of old—
Still are you, love,
My girl of gold!
Still shall the sun,
  13
Upon his way,
Bring us his blessing
On this day;
And still the moon,
  17
With faery beams,
Hallow the house
We built of dreams.
