Spring Reminiscence

Spring Reminiscence

“MY sweet,” you sang, and, “Sweet,” I sang,And sweet we sang together,Glad to be young as the world was young,Two colts too strong for a tether.Shall ever a spring be like that spring,Or apple blossoms as white;Or ever clover smell like the cloverWe lay upon that night?Shall ever your hand lie in my hand,Pulsing to it, I wonder;Or have the gods, being jealous gods,Envied us our thunder?

“MY sweet,” you sang, and, “Sweet,” I sang,And sweet we sang together,Glad to be young as the world was young,Two colts too strong for a tether.

“MY sweet,” you sang, and, “Sweet,” I sang,

“MY sweet,” you sang, and, “Sweet,” I sang,

And sweet we sang together,

Glad to be young as the world was young,

Two colts too strong for a tether.

Shall ever a spring be like that spring,Or apple blossoms as white;Or ever clover smell like the cloverWe lay upon that night?

Shall ever a spring be like that spring,

Or apple blossoms as white;

Or ever clover smell like the clover

We lay upon that night?

Shall ever your hand lie in my hand,Pulsing to it, I wonder;Or have the gods, being jealous gods,Envied us our thunder?

Shall ever your hand lie in my hand,

Pulsing to it, I wonder;

Or have the gods, being jealous gods,

Envied us our thunder?
