Ah me, you well might wait a little while, And not forget me Sweet, until I die! I had a home, a little distant isle, With shadowy trees and tender misty sky. I had a home! It was less dear than thou, And I forgot, as you forget me now. I had a home, more dear than I could tell, And I forgot, but now remember well. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FLEMING HELPHENSTINE by EDWIN ARLINGTON ROBINSON LANCELOT by EDWIN ARLINGTON ROBINSON NIGHTINGALES by ROBERT SEYMOUR BRIDGES THE OWL AND THE PUSSY CAT by EDWARD LEAR SHE CAME AND WENT by JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL A CHARACTER OF HIS FRIEND, W.B.
