The Splendid Folly

(1921)

To My Husband W. G. Q. Pedler

THE HAVEN OF MEMORY

Do you remember
Our great love's pure unfolding,
The troth you gave,
And prayed for God's upholding,
Long and long ago?

Out of the past
A dream--and then the waking--
Comes back to me,
Of love and love's forsaking,
Ere the summer waned.

Ah! Let me dream
That still a little kindness
Dwelt in the smile
That chid my foolish blindness,
When you said good-bye.

Let me remember,
When I am very lonely,
How once your love
But crowned and blessed me only,
Long and long ago!

~ Margaret Pedler.
