Your golden curls, your golden curls! I miss As day could miss the sun, and sun would May And if that month were I a bud to kiss I'd splay to none, unless your light was day. True beauty is; in essence of all springs And that same glow had favored you at birth. Tho' sweetly gifts to soil your flesh now brings Is I whom miss, and buried there my worth. How jealous I; of grass upon your mound As they can reach to where now lays my love And tap upon your coffin; peace is found! That essence none to waste - may spring behove! You were my gold of Spring, tho' now returned within the sacred mire, your spring had earned.

Gone, My Spring (sonnet)
Your golden curls, your golden curls! I miss As day could miss the sun, and sun would May And if that month were I a bud to kiss I'd splay to none, unless your light was day. True beauty is; in essence of all springs And that same glow had favored you at birth. Tho' sweetly gifts to soil your flesh now brings Is I whom miss, and buried there my worth. How jealous I; of grass upon your mound As they can reach to where now lays my love And tap upon your coffin; peace is found! That essence none to waste - may spring behove! You were my gold of Spring, tho' now returned within the sacred mire, your spring had earned.
