\"\"<\/a>Christina Rossetti (1930-1894)<\/p>\n

When I am dead, my dearest,
\nSing no sad songs for me:
\nPlant thou no roses at my head,
\nNor shady cypress tree:
\nBe the green grass above me
\nWith showers and dewdrops wet;
\nAnd if thou wilt, remember,
\nAnd if thou wilt, forget.<\/p>\n

I shall not see the shadows,
\nI shall not feel the rain;
\nI shall not hear the nightingale
\nSing on, as if in pain;
\nAnd dreaming through the twilight
\nThat doth not rise nor set,
\nHaply I may remember,
\nAnd haply may forget.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
