One Sea-Side Grave.

Topics: classic

Unmindful of the roses,     Unmindful of the thorn,     A reaper tired reposes     Among his gathered corn:     So might I, till the morn!     Cold as the cold Decembers,     Past as the days that set,     While only one remembers     And all the rest forget, -     But one remembers yet.
