My Dad

Remember me
when I am gone away,
Gone far away
into the silent land;
When you can no more hold me
by the hand,
Nor I half turn to go
yet turning stay.
Remember me when no more
day by day
You tell me of our future that
you planned:
Only remember me;
you understand

It will be late to counsel then
or pray.
Yet if you should forget me for a while
And afterwards remember;
do not grieve:
For if the darkness and corruption leave
A vestige of the thoughts that once I had,
Better by far
you should forget and smile
Than that you should remember
and be sad.
