A Golden Day
I Found you and I lost you,
All on a gleaming day.
The day was filled with sunshine,
And the land was full of May.
A golden bird was singing
Its melody divine,

And all the world was mine.

All on a golden day,
But when I dream of you, dear,
It is always brimming May. — Paul Laurence Dunbar
