The blighted rose

"Go stand beside our fairy stream,
       Where heaves the gentle sea,
And catch the music of its swell
       But never think of me!
Go far away in your green woods,
       Where rears the lofty tree,
And hear the warbling of the birds
       But never think of me!
But when you see a blighted flower,
       That fain would blooming be,
Then read the language of its heart
       And only think of me!"
