To The Oaks Of Glencree

MY arms are round you, and I lean  
Against you, while the lark  
Sings over us, and golden lights, and green  
Shadows are on your bark.    

There'll come a season when you'll stretch        
Black boards to cover me;  
Then in Mount Jerome I will lie, poor wretch,  
With worms eternally.
