<h3 id="For_One_Who_Went_in_Spring">For One Who Went in Spring</h3>
<p>SHE did not go, as others do,<br/>
With backward look and beckoning;<br/>
With no farewell for anything<br/>
She passed the open doorway through.</p>
<p>The little things she left behind<br/>
Lie where they fell from hands content—<br/>
Fame a forgotten incident<br/>
And life a season out of mind.</p>
<p>The spring will find her footstep gone,<br/>
But spring is kind to vanished things,<br/>
Camas and buttercups she brings<br/>
With green that tears have brightened on.</p>
<p>And we, who walked with her last year<br/>
While April in the lilacs stirred,<br/>
Will turn with sudden look or word—<br/>
Forgetting that she is not here.</p>
