FORSYTHIA, by                    
First Line: Sun at the window and the blaze
Last Line: And life was greatly coming on.
Subject(s): Life; Spring


Sun at the window and the blaze
Of yellow branch and swinging flower,
Worked many creeping unmarked days
Into an everlasting hour.

And I who felt earth wake in me
Was gone, and you were under stone—
But Spring was living in the tree,
And life was greatly coming on.
