Look back with longing eyes and know that I will follow, <br />Lift me up in your love as a light wind lifts a swallow, <br />Let our flight be far in sun or windy rain-- <br />But what if I heard my first love calling me again? <br /> <br />Hold me on your heart as the brave sea holds the foam, <br />Take me far away to the hills that hide your home; <br />Peace shall thatch the roof and love shall latch the door-- <br /> <br />But what if I heard my first love calling me once more?<br /><br />Sara Teasdale<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-flight/
