I HAVE lov’d flowers that fade,
Within whose magic tents
Rich hues have marriage made
With sweet unmemoried scents:
A honeymoon delight,— 5
A joy of love at sight,
That ages in an hour:—
My song be like a flower!
I have lov’d airs that die
Before their charm is writ 10
Along a liquid sky
Trembling to welcome it.
Notes, that with pulse of fire
Proclaim the spirit ’s desire,
Then die, and are nowhere:— 15
My song be like an air!
Die, song, die like a breath,
And wither as a bloom:
Fear not a flowery death,
Dread not an airy tomb! 20
Fly with delight, fly hence!
’T was thine love’s tender sense
To feast; now on thy bier
Beauty shall shed a tear.
