He stood on the edge of a suburb, where house windows faced an expanse
Of bushes and forest and small hills; and readied himself, with a chance.
He stood on the edge of a sunset, with houses not far from his rocks,
And somehow the sunset was lengthened, slowed up through a trick of the clocks.
He harnessed the [...]

Mokeeta, Mokeeta; the soft winds are calling;
Oh where are you sleeping? Oh where can you be?
I miss you MOKEETA, when twilight is falling-
Oh why then so SILENT? Oh why then so far?
I miss you MOKEETA, Oh where can you be?
Far in the twilight your brown hair is gleaming-
I see your bright eyes in a faraway [...]

I weave for you, again,
No “sillysong”….
Of sunsets in the WEST-
Or……drifting sky……
Or TWILIGHT HOURS, from forgotten days-
or how the PRAIRIE wind…..goes singing by!
I will not pause an hour again to build
A castle….in the far dim land of DREAM-
Or how the wind flows ever whispering by-
Or bright with GOLDEN LEAVES
THE OLD TREES LEAN!
I think there is an [...]

If you have a heart for dreaming-
That somehow seems to care!
Then follow me down the pathway-
In the summer twilight there-
If you have a heart for dreaming-
Wherever the Fairies play-
Then follow me into the shadow
Of this old house today!
Of all the beautiful pictures
That hand on memories wall-
The one of the autumn twilight
Seems to be best of [...]

If we could trade away our “lost tomorrows”
And win with them the “Years that used to be”-
The young girl, with the brown eyes’
By the table…..the whispering winds in Spring-
That sang to me!
The crimson tinted clouds of Early Morning-
The summerdays so softly laid to rest!
The rustling corn, the night,
With twiight falling-
Of all these days, which do [...]

When I was young, there was a song-”when I leave The World Behind”-
I’ll leave the sunshine, for the summer-
I’ll leave the tree tops, for the breeze,
I’ll leave the moon above, for those in love-
When I leave the world, behind!
I’ll leave the moonlight, for the dreamers,
I’ll leave the great ships for the seas-
And for the “Old [...]

DARK WERE HER EYES-
Like her sad dark life-
And her HOME was a boat on the sand-
Just an overturned wreck of a lonely boat-
Where she lived, by the sounding sea!
She looked at me, and her deep dark eyes,
Where the shadows, when twilight is dim-
And I talked with her Grandma-
Beside the old boat,
That travels the Waves, no [...]

I met her beside the moonlit river-
I walked beside her through the summer days;
We did not say “goodbye” and leave forever-
For our love still is there, IN THE AUTUMN LEAVES!
Wherever Indian Summer days are golden-
Wherever SUNSET, through the twilight gleams;
Her heart will come to mine….across the shadow….
For LOVE is just a MELODY OF DREAMS.

We have always called you Annie-
Tho you wandered far away,
From the little hidden pathway
Where the joys of childhood stay,
Gone so quickly, down the pathway,
LEFT US….while the vision stays,
Of a Little Girl, name ANNIE-
That I knew in other days.
Gone so quickly, down the pathway-
Left me out here, all alone,
In the quiet of the eveing-
As I drive [...]

I met her down beside the moonlit river-
I wandered with her, through the summer days-
We did not leave, and say goodbye forever-
For in the autumn leaves, our love still stays.
As long as falling autumn leaves are golden-
As long as stars across the twilight gleams-
Her heart will come to mine, along that river,
And we can watch [...]
