Excerpt from Immortelles: And Other Poems
Immortelles.
O modest flower! recall the grace
Of one who loved and gathered thee,
For thou art now the only trace
That brings her memory back to me.
The immortelles all withered lie
That once, like snow-flakes, charmed my gaze:
The only flowers that never
die Are memories of happy days.
Alas! so changed with years we grow, -
So soon are bloom and beauty o'er, -
We might pass by and never know
The face that haunted us of yore.
Life's river hurries on each hour,
And turns to new scenes evermore,
And leaves behind some cherished flower,
To fade on Time's receding shore.
