A Song Poem by Digby Mackworth Dolben

A Song



The world is young today:
Forget the gods are old,
Forget the years of gold
When all the months were May.


A little flower of Love
Is ours, without a root,
Without the end of fruit,
Yet-take the scent thereof.


There may be hope above,
There may be rest beneath;
We see them not, but Death
Is palpable-and Love.
