Sara Teasdale’s famous poem comes alive in this setting by Jocelyn Hagen.

Text

Let it be forgotten, as a flower is forgotten,

Forgotten as a fire that once was singing gold.

Let it be forgotten forever and ever –

If anyone asks, say it was forgotten

Long and long ago –

As a flower, as a fire, as a hushed footfall

In a long forgotten snow.

– Sara Teasdale
