My thanks to all of you who past on their condolences. We were unfortunately
unable to locate the poem in question but we appreciated all the suggestions
we received. We went with one of my father's favorites by Yeats.

The Song of Wandering Aengus

I went out to the hazel wood,
Because a fire was in my head,
And cut and peeled a hazel wand,
And hooked a berry to a thread;
And when white moths were on the wing,
And moth-like stars were flickering out,
I dropped the berry in a stream
And caught a little sliver trout.

When I had laid it on the floor
I went to blow the fire aflame,
But something rustled on the floor,
And some one called me by my name;
It had become a glimmering girl
With apple blossom in her hair
Who called me by my name and ran
And faded through the brightening air.

Though I am old with wandering
Through hollow lands and hilly lands,
I will find out where she has gone,
And kiss her lips and take her hands;
And walk amoung long dappled grass,
And pluck till time and times are done
The silver apples of the moon,
The golden apples of the sun.
