THE GAZING BALL, by                    
First Line: All day you hold my garden
Last Line: Amid the shadows gleam.


All day you hold my garden
Within your silver heart,
Around you in the sunlight
The purple martins dart.

At night all wan and pallid
A ghostly moon you seem,
Where shining stars of fragrance
Amid the shadows gleam.
