THE UNRETURNING by BLISS CARMAN

First Line: THE OLD ETERNAL SPRING ONCE MORE
Last Line: THAT WONDROUS LOOK OF HERS.
The old eternal spring once more
Comes back the sad eternal way,
With tender rosy light before
The going-out of day.

The great white moon across my door
A shadow in the twilight stirs;
But now forever comes no more
That wondrous look of Hers.
