By Request for Mr & Mrs H.  
When storm clouds oershadow the Garden  and spindrift beats in on the winds
Tho all the fair roses are scattered
This comfort the optimist finds.
When shrills the alarm of the Storm King, how warm and bright the close curtained room!
Nor cares he if down in the  cellar
Some pessimist  croaks of the gloom.

Today there's no garden unshadowed
No place  from the spindrifts chill  breath
No curtains can keep out the demons
That sweep under skies so heavy  with    Death.
But far on those long trails behind  us  rise memories dreamlike and  old.
