TO THE MEMORY OF MRS W P BRADLEY
by Her husband
The spring’s soft winds are blowing now,
Are murmuring softly ‘round.
And the fairest flower of summer
Lies budding in the ground.

And O, my heart is sad today,
One fair sweet flower has past
Too soon from this bright world away
Before Death’s chilling blast.

I could not say farewell on earth,
To never meet again,
Nor look upon thy still white face,
And silent bear the pain.

Soon thou has passed away from earth,
Vain were all hopes to save;
And bitter tears are falling, Maude,
Upon thy early grave.

Perhaps ‘til well that thou hast died,
This pleasant spring tide day.
Before Life’s autumn drear had tinged
Those golden curls with gray.

Before those bright blue eyes were dimmed,
By age or grief or woe
Ere cruel Time deep furrows made
Upon Thy heart and brow.
