If my last thoughts contain no wish To feed the wild birds here; If I forget to pity you, And show no mark of care; If I forget your kindness, love, And hasten to my grave: Then, false to all that made life sweet, What good shall I deserve? Then, though I see Heaven close at hand, And hear the music too, May twenty devils seize my soul Until I think of you! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...IDYLLS OF THE KING: DEDICATION by ALFRED TENNYSON THE MOTHERLAND by WILLIAM WORDSWORTH SONNET by KATHARINE REBECCA ADAMS HYMN FOR ALL SAINTS DAY IN THE MORNING by HENRY ALFORD PEACE GUARANTEED by MARY J.
