Rispetto: II

By A. Mary F. Robinson


LET us forget we loved each other much,
Let us forget we ever have to part,
Let us forget that any look or touch
Once let in either to the other’s heart.

Only we ’ll sit upon the daisied grass	5
And hear the larks and see the swallows pass;
Only we ’ll live awhile, as children play,
Without to-morrow, without yesterday.
