    Mountain Water by Sara Teasdale
    You have taken a drink from a wild fountain
    Early in the year;
    There is nowhere to go from the top of a mountain
    But down, my dear;
    And the springs that flow on the floor of the valley
    Will never seem fresh or clear
    For thinking of the glitter of the mountain water
    In the feathery green of the year.
