Whitman, Sarah Helen: Faded Flowers - ZaunköniG - 07.05.2007 Faded Flowers Rememberancers of happiness! to me Ye bring sweet thoughts of the year’s purple prime, - Wild, mingling melodies of bird and bee, That pour on summer winds their silvery chime, - And of rich incense, burdening all the air, From flowers that by the sunny garden wall Bloomed at your side, nursed into beauty there By dews and silent showers; but these to all Ye bring. O, sweeter far than these the spell Shrined in those fairy urns for me alone! For me a charm sleeps in each honeyed cell, Whose power can call back hours of rapture flown; To the sad heart sweet memories restore, - Tones, looks, and words of love that may return no more. |
