Classic Poem

Oh, you are near, my love, so near tonight
That, sitting in the dusk and silence here,
With miles between, I feel your spirit's might,
I know your heart's whole message to me, dear.

The dark is golden with you, music-filled;
My reaching thoughts have drawn you, you are mine.
So near you are, I feel your touch, love-thrilled,
The magic of you makes the moments wine.

Love—you are here! Your arms about me fold
O! blinding rapture of this certainty
O! storm of stars, O! universe of gold
Wherein I love my love, and he loves me!
