Then read the poem:
She Comes Not by Herbert Trench, read for LibriVox.org by [your name].
[Add, if you wish, date, your location, and/or your personal url.]
She comes not when Noon is on the roses--
Too bright is Day.
She comes not to the Soul till it reposes
From work and play.
But when Night is on the hills, and the great Voices
Roll in from Sea,
By starlight and candle-light and dreamlight
She comes to me.
At the end of your reading, leave a space and then say:
End of poem. This recording is in the public domain.
