by Walter De la Mare (1873 - 1956)
Unregarding
Language: English
Put by thy days like withered flowers In twilight hidden away; Memory shall up-build thee bowers Sweeter than they. Hoard not from witness of thy stream The shallowest cruse of tears: Pools still as heaven shall lovelier dream In future years.
