Here you will find the Poem A Song (#1) of poet Paul Laurence Dunbar
ON a summer's day as I sat by a stream, A dainty maid came by, And she blessed my sight like a rosy dream, And left me there to sigh, to sigh, And left me there to sigh, to sigh. On another day as I sat by the stream, This maiden paused a while, Then I made me bold as I told my dream, She heard it with a smile, a smile, She heard it with a smile, a smile. Oh, the months have fled and the autumn's red, The maid no more goes by; For my dream came true and the maid I wed, And now no more I sigh, I sigh, And now no more I sigh.
