Remember me, when Morn with trembling light Opes her enchanted palace to the Sun; Remember me, when silver-mantled Night In silence passes like a pensive nun. Whene'er with ecstasy thy bosom heaves, Or dreams beguile thee in the summer eves, Then from the woodland lone Hear a low-whispered tone, Forget me not! Remember me, when unrelenting Fate Hath forced us two for evermore to part, When years of exile leave me desolate, And sorrow blights this fond despairing heart; Think of my hapless love, my last farewell: Absence and time true passion cannot quell, And while the heart still beats, Each throb for thee repeats, Forget me not! Remember me, when 'neath the chilly tomb My weary heart is wrapt in slumber deep; Remember me, when pale blue flowerets bloom O'er the green turf that shrouds my dreamless sleep. I shall not see thee, but from realms above My soul shall watch thee with a sister's love, And oft when none are nigh, A voice at night shall sigh, Forget me not! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE LAWYERS KNOW TOO MUCH by CARL SANDBURG A CHANNEL PASSAGE by RUPERT BROOKE STANZAS TO A LADY, WITH THE POEMS OF CAMOENS by GEORGE GORDON BYRON WESSEX HEIGHTS by THOMAS HARDY UPON JULIA'S VOICE by ROBERT HERRICK TO ALTHEA, FROM PRISON by RICHARD LOVELACE A CLEAR MIDNIGHT by WALT WHITMAN |
