I could not run or play <br />In boyhood. <br />In manhood I could only sip the cup, <br />Not drink -- <br />For scarlet-fever left my heart diseased. <br />Yet I lie here <br />Soothed by a secret none but Mary knows: <br />There is a garden of acacia, <br />Catalpa trees, and arbors sweet with vines -- <br />There on that afternoon in June <br />By Mary's side -- <br />Kissing her with my soul upon my lips <br />It suddenly took flight.<br /><br />Edgar Lee Masters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/francis-turner/
