| ONE of my wishes is that those dark trees, | |
| So old and firm they scarcely show the breeze, | |
| Were not, as ’twere, the merest mask of gloom, | |
| But stretched away unto the edge of doom. | |
| |
| I should not be withheld but that some day | 5 |
| Into their vastness I should steal away, | |
| Fearless of ever finding open land, | |
| Or highway where the slow wheel pours the sand. | |
| |
| I do not see why I should e’er turn back, | |
| Or those should not set forth upon my track | 10 |
| To overtake me, who should miss me here | |
| And long to know if still I held them dear. | |
| |
| They would not find me changed from him they knew— | |
Only more sure of all I thought was true.
