TO FLORENCE, by                    
First Line: The breathing of the night mingles quietly with the
Last Line: So my fluttering dreams swarm eagerly to you.
Subject(s): Dreams; Love; Nightmares


The breathing of the night mingles quietly with the
breathing of the lake. ...
The moonlight rains over the black crest of the over-
hanging trees and scatters a myriad of silver
butterflies on the water. ...
They swarm from the black shadow of the trees to
where floats a lily of marvelous whiteness. ...
So my fluttering dreams swarm eagerly to you.
