Death & Dying

In Memoriam (Easter, 1915)

by Edward Thomas 1878–1917

From Collected Poems (1920)

Death & Dying

The flowers left thick at nightfall in the wood
This Eastertide call into mind the men,
Now far from home, who, with their sweethearts, should
Have gathered them and will do never again.
