THE SAME CONTINUED <br />Old memories are sweet, but these are new <br />And smart like wounds yet green. But one there is <br />Which, for the cause that it was dear to you <br />In days which counted upon greater bliss, <br />Is fairer now and dearer far than these; <br />And this the memory is of some hours spent <br />One afternoon when, seated at your knees, <br />I made narration (it was middle Lent <br />And you with Judas flowers had filled your lap), <br />Of the wise secret of these rhymes of mine, <br />And gave a promise, which behold I keep, <br />To write them out for you, each idle line, <br />Throwing you all my rubbish in one heap. <br />Poor stuff perhaps. And yet it made you weep.<br /><br />Wilfrid Scawen Blunt<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-love-sonnets-of-proteus-part-ii-to-juliet-xxxv/
