In the Heart of the Woods
Reading edition
I LOST my heart in the heart of the woods; It stayed there through the day, It stayed there through the solitudes Of a night with no moon ray. Through the day so dusty, worn and sere My heart was cool and free, Through the wild night, tempest-tossed and drear, My heart slept peacefully. I found my heart in the heart of the woods, I looked on it and smiled; And over it still the woodland broods, As a mother over her child.
