Williams.
And
the
little
owl
in
the willow ,
So
passionless, still, we
seem ,
As little
fears
our
passing
As he fears
the
passing
stream .
The
sun
has charmed
our
hearts ,
Our sense ,
to tranquility
Quiet as
weeds
in
the river
Or the
little owl
in
the
tree .
LA
VECCHIA .
( To Walter Sickert ,
for
his
drawing
.)
THINK
that
that
sad
look
of
yours
to
-
day

That
dreamy
gazing
at
the
distances
,
Which
keeps
you
standing
rapt
and
motionless
In
that
near
present
of
the
far
away
,
Is
full
of
memories
and
interplay
Of
thoughts
of
many
days
of
happiness
When
you were swift
to
dance
and
bright
of
tress
,
That
now
are
heavy
-
limbed
and
old
and
grey
.
near
you
staring
at
Perhaps
it
is
the
chatting
of
the
birds
In
the
new
sun
that
brings
to
you
again
The
thought
that
on
a
day
just
such
as
this
You should
have
seen
him
come
,
have
heard
his words
,
Have

No
.
Only
guessing
at
your
pain
I
watch
you
gaze
upon
your memories
.
