Beside me singing in the Wilderness -

Oh, Wilderness were Paradise enow!

- - - -Edward Fitzgerald "The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam"

A robin red breast in a cage

Puts all heaven in a rage.

All that is gold does not glitter,

Not all those who wander are lost

The old that is strong does not wither,

Deep roots are not reached by frost.

And all manner of things shall be well.

When the tongues of flame are in-folded

Into the crowned knot of fire,

Ambiguous undulations as they sink

All is in her name;

But the rose remembers

The dust from which it came.

- - - -Edna St. Vincent Millay

Before the beginning of years

There came to the making of man

Time, with a gift of tears;

Grief, with a glass that ran;

Pleasure, with pain for leaven;

Summer, with flowers that fell;

Remembrance, fallen from heaven,

And madness risen from hell;

Strength without hands to smite;

Love that endures for a breath;

Night, the shadow of light,

And Life, the shadow of death.

- - - -Algernon Charles Swinburne "Atalanta in Calydon" (1865)

But Fear and the Muse in turn guard the place

Where the banished poet has gone

And the night that comes with quickened pace

Is ignorant of dawn.

- - - -Anna Akhmatova

But if you ever come to a road where danger

Or guilt or anguish or shame's to share.

Be good to the lad who loves you true,

And the soul that was born to die for you

And whistle and I'll be there

- - - -A. E. Housman

By the time you swear you're his,

Shivering and sighing,

And he vows his passion is

Infinite, undying -

Lady make note of this:

One of you is lying.

Come away, O human child!

to the waters and the wild

with a faery, hand in hand,

for the world's more full of weeping

than you can understand...

Do not go gentle into that good night,

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;

Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And I will pledge with mine;

Or leave a kiss but in the cup

And I'll not look for wine.

Every Night and every Morn

Some to Misery are born.

Every Morn and every Night

Some are born to Sweet Delight,

Some are born to Endless Night.

- - - -William Blake "Auguries of Innocence"

For the crown of our life as it closes

Is darkness, the fruit there of dust;

No thorns go as deep as the rose's,

And love is more cruel than lust.

Time turns the old days to derision,

Our loves into corpses or wives;

And marriage and death and division

Make barren our lives.

- - - -Algernon Charles Swinburne "Dolores" (1866)

For this is Wisdom; to love, to live

To take what fate, or the Gods may give.

To ask no question, to make no prayer,

To kiss the lips and caress the hair,

Speed passion's ebb as you greet its flow

To have, - to hold - and - in time, - let go!

- - - -Laurence Hope

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may,

Old Times is still a-flying:

And this same flower that smiles today,

Tomorrow will be dying.

Girl with the burning golden eyes,

And red-bird song, and snowy throat:

I bring you gold and silver moons,

And diamond stars, and mists that float.

I bring you moons and snowy clouds,

I bring you prarie skies to-night

To feebly praise your golden eyes

And red-bird song, and throat so white.

- - - -Vachel Lindsay "To Gloriana"

God wrote His loveliest poem on the day

He made the first silver poplar tree,

And set it high upon a pale-gold hill

For all the new enchanted earth to see.

- - - -Grace Noll (Mrs. Norman H. Crowell)

Grow old along with me!

The best is yet to be.

The last of life, for which the first was made.

- - - -Robert Browning "'Rabbi Ben Ezra"

Had I the heavens' embroidered cloths,

Enwrought with golden and silver light,

The blue and the dim and the dark cloths

Of night and light and the half-light,

I would spread the cloths under your feet:

But I, being poor, have only my dreams;

I have spread my dreams under your feet;

Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

- - - -William Butler Yeats

He was my North, my South, my East and West,

My working week and Sunday rest,

My noon, my midnight, my talk, my song;

I thought that love would last forever: I was wrong.

Her beauty was sold for an old man's gold,

She's a bird in a gilded cage.

The shooting stars attend thee;

And the elves also,

Whose little eyes glow

Like the sparks of fire, befriend thee.

And here is my heart which beats only for you.

I love thee to the depth and breadth and height

My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight

For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.

I believe that if i should die,

and you were to walk near my grave,

from the very depths of the earth

I would hear your footsteps.

- - - -Benito Perez Galdos

I do not want a plain box, I want a sarcophagus

With tigery stripes, and a face on it

Round as the moon, to stare up.

I want to be looking at them when they come

Picking among the dumb minerals, the roots.

I see them already-the pale, star-distance faces.

Now they are nothing, they are not even babies.

I imagine them without fathers or mothers, like the first gods.

They will wonder if I was important.

- - - -Sylvia Plath "Last Words"

I have loved many, the more and the few -

I have loved many that I might love you.

- - - -Grace Fallow Norton

I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm,

your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy, golden storm,

yes many loved before us, I know we are not new,

in city and in forest they smiled like me and you,

but now it's come to distances and both of us must try,

your eyes are soft with sorrow,

Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.

- - - - Leonard Cohen "Hey That's No Way to Say Good-bye"

To the lands I knew before you came,

And the cool ocean breezes shall blow from me

The memory of your name.

And dreamed a dream that could not be;

The waves that plunged along the shore

Said only: "Dreamer, dream no more!"

While yet you hold me fair,

While laughter lies upon my lips,

And lights are in my hair.

I was born to catch dragons in their dens

And pick flowers

To tell tales and laugh away the morning

To drift and dream like a lazy stream

And walk barefoot across sunshine days.

- - - - James Kavanaugh "Sunshine Days and Foggy Nights"

I've lived to bury my desires,

And see my dreams corrode with rust;

Now all that's left are fruitless fires

That burn my empty heart to dust.

- - - -Aleksandr Pushkin

If ever two were one, then surely we.

If ever man were loved by wife, then thee.

If every wife was happy with a man,

Compare with me ye women if you can.

- - - -Anne Bradstreet "To My Dearest and Loving Husband," 1678

If I could take your troubles

I would toss them into the sea,

But all these things I'm finding

Are impossible for me.

I cannot build a mountain

Or catch a rainbow fair,

But let me be what I know best,

A friend that is always there.

- - - -Khahlil Gibran "A True Friend"

If wild my breast and sore my pride,

I bask in dreams of suicide,

if cool my heart and high my head

I think "How lucky are the dead"

In Xanadu did Kublai Khan

A stately pleasure-dome decree:

Where Alph, the sacred river, ran

Through caverns measureless to man

Down to a sunless sea.

Ink runs from the corners of my mouth.

There is no happiness like mine.

I have been eating poetry.

It's easy, perhaps to die for a dream

With banners unfurled - and be forgiving!

It's the hardest part to follow the gleam

When scorned by the world - and go on living!

- - - -Myra Brooks Welch

Know'st thou the land where the lemon-trees bloom,

Where the gold orange glows in the deep thicket's gloom,

Where a wind ever soft from the blue heaven blows,

And the groves are of laurel and myrtle and rose!

- - - -Johann Wolfgang von Goethe "Wilhelm Meister"

Know ye the land where the cypress and myrtle

Are emblems of deeds that are done in their clime?

Where the rage of the vulture, the love of the turtle,

Now melt into sorrow, now madden to crime!

- - - -Lord Byron, "The Bride of Abydos"

Life, like a dome of many-colored glass,

Stains the white radiance of eternity.

- - - -Percy Bysshe Shelley "Adonais"

Look for me by moonlight;

Watch for me by moonlight;

I'll come to thee by moonlight, though hell should bar the way!

- - - -Alfred Noyes "The Highwayman"

Love is not all: It is not meat nor drink

Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain,

Nor yet a floating spar to men that sink

and rise and sink and rise and sink again.

Love cannot fill the thickened lung with breath

Nor clean the blood, nor set the fractured bone;

Yet many a man is making friends with death

even as I speak, for lack of love alone.

It well may be that in a difficult hour,

pinned down by need and moaning for release

or nagged by want past resolutions power,

I might be driven to sell you love for peace,

Or trade the memory of this night for food.

It may well be. I do not think I would.

- - - -Edna St. Vincent Millay

Love me sweet

With all thou art

Feeling, thinking, seeing;

Love me in the

Lightest part,

Love me in full

Being.

- - - - Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Love rules the court, the camp, the grove,

And men below, and saints above:

For love is heaven, and heaven is love.

- - - -Walter Scott

Music I heard with you was more than music,

And bread I broke with you was more than bread.

Now that I am without you, all is so desolate;

And all that once was so beautiful is dead.

- - - -Conrad Aiken "Bread and Music"

Music, when soft voices die,

Vibrates in the memory;

Odors, when sweet violets sicken,

Live within the sense they quicken.
