Lyrics:
"A Song, Twilight Song

In cooling August evenings
I think of how gets to be--
someone tending, someone taking--
will this be you and me?

In those far years, uncertain roads,
will I hold your trembling hand,
will you bring me broth and tea?

Find the comb with the silvery tines,
smooth away the gathering lines.
Here at the edge of evening's keep,
hum, you hum, until we both sleep.

Karen L. Totten
