An April Mood

In love's vain lore my heart was wise . . .
We stooped between the tangled boughs . . .
O, April vows . . . O, April vows.

I have forgotten what you said
To win a kiss that afternoon;
But, O, your lips were warm and red,
And when you went, you went too soon
That showery April afternoon.
