"Remember me when I am gone away,
Gone far away into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more day by day
You tell me of our future that you plann'd:
Only remember me; you understand
It will be late to counsel then or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember, do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember and be sad."
CHRISTINA ROSSETTI
"When Winter comes, remember me beside you on lush ivory sand If icy fingers beckon thee, arise and brush aside her hand
As you awake on shortening days, when Winter comes, remember me
Then frost just may forsake her grays and set hushed rays of color free
Light snow may fall so subtly, pale notes on parchment sheer as sleet, when
Winter comes remember me and I shall play each shivering sheet
July's abundant harvest gone, I'm owed no Summer memory but hope you will, from this day on, when Winter comes, remember me..."
