I have come the selfsame path <br />To the selfsame door, <br />Years have left the roses there <br />Burning as before <br /> <br />While I watch them in the wind <br />Quick the hot tears start-- <br />Strange so frail a flame outlasts <br />Fire in the heart.<br /><br />Sara Teasdale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dooryard-roses/
