Stephens, i Some Reflections Loves way Passing moments Sores heal A Golden Fuchsia-Laden Girl Reflections Fat girls Adrift Just a weed All down to Carraroe You and me Love poem Sad Irish girl Like HimI left my heart in innocence,Where the morning flowerstrembling growAbove the lawn of shadowy night,Awaiting the day they do not know.And with my heart, I left a noteBediamonded on the stars above:The morning comes;the day will findWhoever finds this heart, Ill love.And in the sunny afternoonA golden fuchsia-laden girl,To where I left my heartdid come,And found the note, but quickly ran.And in the echo of her voiceI heard the sorrow of my life:For I have other things to doand could not ever be your wife.Why did I promise to the MoonWords written on the burning stars,Eternally fixed upon the night;My destiny now prison bars!If I could light the UniverseAnd quench the horoscope of dreams,Then I, as well, could find anotherTo take along lifes shallower streams.
