NOVEMBER, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: I will come back to you and you to me
Last Line: I will come back to you and you to me.
Subject(s): Fish & Fishing; Grass; November; Sea; Trees; Ocean


I will come back to you and you to me;
When the poplar-trees blow white and the rooks fly home,
And the fishermen draw their nets out of the sea;
I will come back to you and you to me.

When across the flooded weirs the wild-fowl fly,
When the dead leaves fall from each remembered tree,
When over the withered grass the plovers cry,
I will come back to you and you to me.
