In answer, and no listening ear,

No one to care now thou art dead!

And month by month, and year by year,

I shall but miss thee more, and go

With half my thought untold, I know.

I do not think thou hast forgot,

I know that I shall not forget,

And some day, glad, but wondering not,

We two shall meet, and face to face,

In still, fair fields unseen as yet,
