Where love is, there comes sorrow To-day or else to-morrow: Endure the mood, Love only means our good. Where love is, there comes pleasure With or withouten measure. Early or late Cheering the sorriest state. Where love is, all perfection Is stored for heart's delection; For where love is Dwells every sort of bliss. Who would not choose a sorrow Love's self will cheer to-morrow? One day of sorrow, Then such a long to-morrow! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...SONOMA FIRE by JANE HIRSHFIELD AS THE SPARKS FLY UPWARDS by JOHN HOLLANDER WHAT GREAT GRIEF HAS MADE THE EMPRESS MUTE by JUNE JORDAN CHAMBER MUSIC: 19 by JAMES JOYCE I HAVE FOLDED MY SORROWS by BOB KAUFMAN IT IS FINISHED' by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI ITALIA, IO TI SALUTO!' by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI THE HEART KNOWETH ITS OWN BITTERNESS' (2) by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI |
