Love, strong as Death, is dead.
Come, let us his bed
Among the dying flowers:
A green turf his head;
And a stone at his feet,
Whereon may sit
In the quiet evening hours.
He was in the Spring,
And died before the harvesting:
On last warm summer day
He left us; he would stay
For autumn twilight, cold and gray.
Sit we his grave, and sing
He is gone away.
To chords and sad and low
Sing we so:
Be eyes fixed on the grass
Shadow-veiled as the years pass,
While we think of all that was
In the ago.
