AFICKLE heart! Let subtler poets sing Of changeless love and all that kind of thing, Of hearts in which a passion never dies -- @3My@1 heart's as fickle as the summer skies Across whose face the changing cloud-forms wing. Unfailing loves unfailing troubles bring. I love to touch on Cupid's harp each string, Though each unto my questioning touch replies A fickle heart. So, 'twixt some thirty loves I'm wavering, To each the same unstable vows I fling, Reading the first glad gleam of love's surprise In thirty pair of brown and azure eyes, Finding in all the same thought answering A fickle heart. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AQUATINT FRAMED IN GOLD by AMY LOWELL ABU SALAMMAMM - A SONG OF EMPIRE by EZRA POUND OLD TRAILS by EDWIN ARLINGTON ROBINSON MY YOUTH by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES THE HELMSMAN by HILDA DOOLITTLE MARSYAS by CHARLES GEORGE DOUGLAS ROBERTS IN MEMORIAM A.H.H.: 7 by ALFRED TENNYSON THE STORY OF FIORDISPINA, FR.
