    MILD IS THE PARTING YEAR
    by Walter Savage Landor

    Mild is the parting year, and sweet
    The odour of the falling spray;
    Life passes on more rudely fleet,
    And balmless is its closing day.

    I wait its close, I court its gloom,
    But mourn that never must there fall
    Or on my breast or on my tomb
    The tear that would have soothed it all.

    ------

    Walter says hi.

    Walter just told us that he didn't appreciate George Dunce stealing this poem from us.

    Just because George Dunce thinks that someone is dead, that is not a license to post the guy's poem. Some people thought dead are not actually...dead.
