There Falls with Every Wedding Chime

Landor-W

THERE falls with every wedding chime

A feather from the wing of Time.

You pick it up, and say “How fair

To look upon its colors are!”

Another drops day after day

Unheeded; not one word you say.

When bright and dusky are blown past,

Upon the hearse there nods the last.
