To an Unknown Girl
By TVD
Daily Illini, 15 Dec 1925, p.5

Last night I dreamed, 
Of peaks, silver in the moonlight, 
Of life and love, 
And in my dreams I was returning, 
Like the homing dove. 

Last night I dreamed - 
But in the dull, dead morning, 
Forlorn and blue, 
I thought to cease my futile dreaming, 
Then I saw you! 

Again I dreamed, 
As I watched this glory of your eyes, 
Your soft silk hair - 
And heard the silver cadence of your voice, 
How could I dare? 

I thought I could to my philosophy hold true, 
Last night I dreamed, today I dream of you! 

         TVD.
