Poem by Thomas Hardy

Let Me Believe

  (Song)

Let me believe it, dearest,
Let it be
As just a dream – the merest –
Haunting me,
That a frank full-souled sweetness
Warmed your smile
And voice, to indiscreetness
Once, awhile!

And I will fondly ponder
Till I lie
Earthed up with others yonder
Past a sigh,
That you may name at stray times
With regret
One whom through green and gray times
You forget!
