Poem by Charles Hanson Towne

An Autumn Leaf

Upon my parchment, sadly old,
The record lives of Summer's gold;
And in my veins there lingers now
The joy of Spring's awakening bough.

So I, like many a human heart
Wherefrom life's shining days depart,
Keep valiently some remnant yet
Of dreams we never quite forget.

1. I Drink the Fragrance of the Rose
2. The Song of City Traffic
3. The Little Home Paper
4. City Children
5. A Broken Friendship
