The Answering Voice: One Hundred Love Lyrics by Women. 1917.
Elsa Barker
O
Lean over the reflecting stream;
And I know what the wandering bees
Heard in the woods of dream.
Answers the signal of the moon,
And why the morning-glories hide
Their eyes in the forenoon.
That quivers in the sea-bird’s wings,
For in one little hour last night
Love told me all these things.
