The Complete Poems of Christina Rossetti | ||
Autumn.
Fade tender lily,
Fade O crimson rose,
Fade every flower
Sweetest flower that blows.
Fade O crimson rose,
Fade every flower
Sweetest flower that blows.
Go chilly Autumn,
Come O Winter cold;
Let the green things die away
Into common mould.
Come O Winter cold;
Let the green things die away
Into common mould.
Birth follows hard on death,
Life on withering:
Hasten, we shall come the sooner
Back to pleasant Spring.
Life on withering:
Hasten, we shall come the sooner
Back to pleasant Spring.
