THE TREE OF SONG

I sang my songs for the rest,
For you I am still;
The tree of my song is bare
On its shining hill.


For you came like a lordly wind,
And the leaves were whirled
Far as forgotten things
Past the rim of the world.


The tree of my song stands bare
Against the blue—
I gave my songs to the rest,
Myself to you.
