Sylvia
Oley Speaks, Clinton Scollard
Sylvia's hair is like the night
Touched with glancing starry beams
Such a face as drifts through dreams
This is Sylvia to the sight
And the touch of Sylvia's hand
Is as light as milkweed down
When the leaves are golden brown
And the autumn fills the land
Sylvia
Just the echoing
Of her voice brings back to me
From the depths of memory
All the loveliness of spring
Sylvia
Sylvia
Such a face as drifts through dreams
This is Sylvia to the sight
