The Bitter HerbJeanne Robert FosterO bitter herb, Forgetfulness, I search for you in vain; You are the only growing thing Can take away my pain.When I was young, this bitter herb Grew wild on every hill; I should have plucked a store of it, And kept it by me still.I hunt through all the meadows Where once I wandered free, But the rare herb, Forgetfulness, It hides away from me.O bitter herb, Forgetfulness, Where is your drowsy breath? Oh, can it be your seed has blown Far as the Vales of Death?
