A Lady Standing By A Gate

I saw a lady standing by a gate
That led into a field. T\'was late.
She turned to look as I passed by
And followed with her gaze.. I wondered why.
And when I turned to take another look
The image of her vanished.

Along the road I walked, the scene was clear
But in my mind it seemed so very queer.
Once she was there, next moment she was gone
And on her golden hair, the sun had shone.
But now, where this young lady stood
Was only air.
