Poet:
Spring
The air is full of dawn and spring; Outside the room I see
A swallow, like a shaft of light, Shift sideways suddenly.
There is no room for death at all In earth or heaven above;
He never yet believed in death Who ever learned to love.
Build me a tomb when I am dead, But leave a window free
That I may watch the swallow?s flight, And spring come back to me.
Build me a tomb of steel and stone, But leave one window free,
That I may feel the spring come back-
And you come back to me!
