THE great things that I love I cannot do! The little things I do I cannot love... I never knew Our earth so vain, so void the heavens above. A dream in daytime, aimlessly I rove, And wander through A world whose wonders are not vast enough To hide one haunting image from my view. And nought, I find, is sweet, and nothing true; And one dream, only, worth the dreaming of... O Love, my Love, If I could give my life and die for you! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...YOUNG SAMMY'S FIRST WILD OATS by GEORGE SANTAYANA THE BROKEN PITCHER by WILLIAM EDMONSTOUNE AYTOUN EPISTLE TO WILLIAM SIMPSON OF OCHILTREE by ROBERT BURNS THE DESCRIPTION OF COOKHAM by AEMILIA (BASSANO) LANYER ANTIQUE JEWELER by FREDERICK HENRY HERBERT ADLER |
