I CAN write no stately proem / As a prelude to my lay; / From a poet to a poem / I would dare to say.
For if of these fallen petals / One to you seem fair, / Love will waft it till it settles / On your hair.
And when wind and winter harden / All the loveless land, / It will whisper of the garden, / You will understand.
