Love
An Anniversary
From Poems (1908)
Love
Three years! Is it only three?
A weary while has passed since then.
The world of nature and of men
Is older, by an age, to me.
Three years! And is it then so long?
I thought it happened yesterday.
How is it with thee, far away,
In the white world of palm and song?
