Christina Georgina Rossetti - Song IChristina Georgina Rossetti - Song I
Work rating: Medium


When I am dead, my dearest,         Sing no sad songs for me;     Plant thou no roses at my head,         Nor shady cypress tree:     Be the green grass above me         With showers and dewdrops wet;     And if thou wilt, remember,         And if thou wilt, forget.     I shall not see the shadows,       I shall not feel the rain;   I shall not hear the nightingale       Sing on, as if in pain:   And dreaming through the twilight       That doth not rise nor set,   Haply I may remember,       And haply may forget.
