Let it be forgotten, as a flower is forgotten, <br />Forgotten as a fire that once was singing gold. <br />Let it be forgotten forever and ever, <br />Time is a kind friend, he will make us old. <br /> <br />If anyone asks, say it was forgotten <br />Long and long ago, <br />As a flower, as a fire, as a hushed footfall <br />In a long-forgotten snow.<br /><br />Sara Teasdale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/let-it-be-forgotten/
