Nature
Spring Song
From The poetical works of George MacDonald in two volumes — Volume 1
Nature
Days of old,
Ye are not dead, though gone from me;
Ye are not cold,
But like the summer-birds fled o'er some sea.
The sun brings back the swallows fast
O'er the sea;
When he cometh at the last,
The days of old come back to me.
