L’Envoi

Marion Strobel

THE MOMENTS reach and touch the hours gently.

Each is kind,

Each is soothing as the tips

Of fingers held to lips.

The moments reach and touch the hours: flowers

Will bloom again,

And I shall pick fresh jonquils for the room;

And I shall pick fresh jonquils in the usual way

Every day.

The moments reach and touch the hours:

Time has no beginning, and no end,

Dear friend.
