Old homes! old hearts! Upon my soul forever
Their peace and gladness lie like tears and laughter.

Myth and Romance (1899)

When the hornet hangs in the hollyhock,
And the brown bee drones i' the rose,
And the west is a red-streaked four-o'-clock
And summer is near its close—
It's—Oh for the gate and the lotus lane
And dusk and dew and home again!
