Where Once He Stood Where once he stood the grasses grow The leaves still rustle high and low Where once he walked the path still wends Through shades of green, round little bends The elm and poplar stately grow Yet silently as if they know The earth was silenced long ago Where once he stood A lofty tower does bestow The grandest view to land below He walks, he walks his plot again On wondrous trails that never end Where measured acres brightly glow With silver trees and golden snow Yet fox and sparrow seem to know Where once he stood |
