2) Oh, call my sister back to me,

I cannot play alone;

The Summer comes, with flower and bee,

Where is my sister gone?



The flowers run wild, the flowers we sowed,

Around our garden tree;

Our vine is dropping its load-

Oh, call her back to me.

*

She wouldn't hear thy voice, fair child,

She may not come to thee;

Her face that once like summer smiled,

On earth, no more thou'lt see.



A rose's brief, bright life of joy,

Such unto her was given.

Go, thou must play alone, my boy,

Thy sister is in Heaven.

*

And has she left her birds and flowers?

And must I call in vain?

And through the long, long summer hours

Will she not come again?



And by the brook, and in the glade,

Are all our wanderings o'er?

Oh, while my sister with me played,

Would I have loved her more.

No, not much.
Reply:Both poems have little in common apart from the fact that a child has died.



Wordsworth's poem I have read many times, and its meaning is quite lovely. The little girl has lost all of her kinfolk, but even in their deaths she still considers them as being with her as a complete family. Death has not parted them.
