IN SPRING, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: I do not know which is worse when you are away
Last Line: I walk alone in ways that we went in together.
Alternate Author Name(s): Kilmer, Joyce, Mrs.
Subject(s): Spring


I do not know which is worse when you are away:
Long gray days with the lisping sound of the rain,
And then when the lilac dusk is beginning to fall,
The thought that perhaps you may never come back again;

Or days when the world is a shimmer of blue and gold,
Sparkling newly all in the dear spring weather,
And with a heart that is torn apart by pain,
I walk alone in ways that we went in together.
