Robert W Service - Heart o` the North
Work rating: Low

And when I come to the dim trail-end, 
I who have been Life`s rover, 
This is all I would ask, my friend, 
Over and over and over: 

A little space on a stony hill 
With never another near me, 
Sky o` the North that`s vast and still, 
With a single star to cheer me; 

Star that gleams on a moss-grey stone 
Graven by those who love me — 
There would I lie alone, alone, 
With a single pine above me; 

Pine that the north wind whinneys through — 
Oh, I have been Life`s lover! 
But there I`d lie and listen to 
Eternity passing over.
