AGAIN? To my Home on Lake Champlain

Previous
Shall I come again?
Again to see the reeds,
Yellowing now?
“Bye and bye!
Bye and bye!”
Lake rushes cry.
Shall I come again
To these willow leaves
Falling now?
Their joy was brief!
The willow leaf
Knows grief.
Shall I breathe again
Gray balsam dripping amber
On the mould?
What knows the year
Of any fear,—
Of any amber tear!
September 27, 1920.
