Oh, this is one of my favorite poems. I first knew it in adolescence, when I had no remembered experience of death and just loved the language. Reading it now, with plenty of loss under my belt, is so different; the language is as beautiful as ever but the melancholy and wistfulness are close to the bone. Thanks for reminding me of this; it's been a while since I read it.
