AH, my heart, the storm and sadness! <br /> Wind that moans, uncomforted, <br />Requiem for Love that’s dead’ <br /> Love that’s dead! <br /> Leafless trees that sough and sigh, <br /> Gloom of earth, and grey of sky, <br />Ah, my heart, what storm and sadness! <br /> <br />Ah, my heart, those sweet Septembers! <br /> Ah, the glory and the glow <br /> Of the Spring-tides long ago, <br /> Long ago! <br /> Gleam of gold, and glint of green <br /> On the grassy hillsides seen, <br />Ah, my heart, those sweet Septembers! <br /> <br />Ah, my heart, on sweet soft pinions, <br /> Spring, the lov’d one, hovers nigh, <br /> She shall settle by-and-by, <br /> By-and-by! <br /> But the hills shall shine in vain, <br /> Love, alas, comes not again, <br />Ah, my heart, on sweet soft pinions!<br /><br />Dora Wilcox<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/liebesweh/
