I can't find this poem anywhere on the Internet. But I have it in my Peace Journal. I hope it is really by Carol Sandburg. Here it is:
To a Poet
You said I would go alone,
I would find my way.
But you were the strongest person I had known.
You were the morning wind,
and you were stone.
You said: "I know that you will go your way.
Whatever horse you want to ride is yours,
And night is yours, and the evening gleams, and day.
I can tell you nothing you have not known."
I said: "I go with you; I am your own."
But I went alone.
