Death & Dying
In the Nower
From A London Plane-Tree, and Other Verse
Death & Dying
TO J. DE P.
Deep in the grass outstretched I lie,
Motionless on the hill;
Above me is a cloudless sky,
Around me all is still:
There is no breath, no sound, no stir,
The drowsy peace to break;
I close my tired eyes--it were
So simple not to wake.
