SECRETS, by                    
First Line: When drowsy time discards her spangled dress
Last Line: Each wrinkle holds. . . .
Subject(s): Secrets


When drowsy Time discards her spangled dress,
Angelic touches carefully caress
Its secret folds
And place it, womanlike, within a vault
Where tenderness can smooth the earthly fault
Each wrinkle holds. . . .
