The Spring, My Dear

    By William Ernest Henley



    The spring, my dear,
    Is no longer spring.
    Does the blackbird sing
    What he sang last year?
    Are the skies the old
    Immemorial blue?
    Or am I, or are you,
    Grown cold?

    Though life be change,
    It is hard to bear
    When the old sweet air
    Sounds forced and strange.
    To be out of tune,
    Plain You and I . . .
    It were better to die,
    And soon!
