SINCE years ago for evermore <br />My cedar ship I drew to shore; <br />And to the road and riverbed <br />And the green, nodding reeds, I said <br />Mine ignorant and last farewell: <br />Now with content at home I dwell, <br />And now divide my sluggish life <br />Betwixt my verses and my wife: <br />In vain; for when the lamp is lit <br />And by the laughing fire I sit, <br />Still with the tattered atlas spread <br />Interminable roads I tread.<br /><br />Robert Louis Stevenson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/since-years-ago-for-evermore/
