Gone gone againA
May June JulyB
And August goneC
Again gone byB
-
Not memorableD
Save that I saw them goE
As past the empty quaysF
The rivers flowE
-
And now againA
In the harvest rainG
The Blenheim orangesF
Fall grubby from the treesF
-
As when I was youngH
And when the lost one was hereI
And when the war beganJ
To turn young men to dungH
-
Look at the old houseF
Outmoded dignifiedK
Dark and untenantedK
With grass growing insteadK
-
Of the footsteps of lifeL
The friendliness the strifeL
In its beds have lainG
Youth love age and painG
-
I am something like thatK
Only I am not deadK
Still breathing and interestedK
In the house that is not darkM
-
I am something like thatK
Not one pane to reflect the sunN
For the schoolboys to throw atK
They have broken every oneN
