There will come soft rains and the smell of the ground,_x000D_
And swallows circling with their shimmering sound;_x000D_
_x000D_
And frogs in the pools singing at night,_x000D_
And wild plum trees in tremulous white,_x000D_
_x000D_
Robins will wear their feathery fire_x000D_
Whistling their whims on a low fence-wire;_x000D_
_x000D_
And not one will know of the war, not one_x000D_
Will care at last when it is done._x000D_
_x000D_
Not one would mind, neither bird nor tree_x000D_
If mankind perished utterly;_x000D_
_x000D_
And Spring herself, when she woke at dawn,_x000D_
Would scarcely know that we were gone._x000D_
