inspirational poetry

this is the song of youth
moonlight deep and tender
what do i owe to you
lived by the river-side
there is no escape by the river
she was a beauty in the days
in the cloud-gray mornings
their beautiful hair
up and down he goes
lo! 'tis a gala night
it tells of good old times
i shall see a star tonight
here falls no light
out of the deep and the dark
