Take this kiss upon the brow!
\nAnd, in parting from you now,
\nThus much let me avow–
\nYou are not wrong, who deem
\nThat my days have been a dream;
\nYet if hope has flown away
\nIn a night, or in a day,
\nIn a vision, or in none,
\nIs it therefore the less gone?
\nAll that we see or seem
\nIs but a dream within a dream.<\/p>\n

I stand amid the roar
\nOf a surf-tormented shore,
\nAnd I hold within my hand
\nGrains of the golden sand–
\nHow few! yet how they creep
\nThrough my fingers to the deep,
\nWhile I weep–while I weep!
\nO God! can I not grasp
\nThem with a tighter clasp?
\nO God! can I not save
\nOne from the pitiless wave?
\nIs all that we see or seem
\nBut a dream within a dream?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
