its branches is breaking<br \/>\nA host of kind faces is gazing on me.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nThe friends from my childhood again are before me<br \/>\nEach step wakes a memory as freely I roam.<br \/>\nWith soft whispers laden the leaves rustle o\u2019er me<br \/>\nThe ash grove, the ash grove alone is my home.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nDown yonder green valley where streamlets meander<br \/>\nWhen twilight is fading I pensively rove<br \/>\nOr at the bright noon tide in solitude wander<br \/>\nAmid the dark shades of the lonely ash grove.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n\u2018Twas there while the black bird was cheerfully singing<br \/>\nI first met that dear one the joy of my heart<br \/>\nAround us for gladness the blue bells were ringing<br \/>\nBut then little thought I how soon we
