ILOVE thee -- I love thee! 'Tis all that I can say; -- It is my vision in the night, My dreaming in the day; The very echo of my heart, The blessing when I pray: I love thee -- I love thee! Is all that I can say. I love thee -- I love thee! Is ever on my tongue; In all my proudest poesy That chorus still is sung; It is the verdict of my eyes, Amidst the gay and young: I love thee -- I love thee! A thousand maids among. I love thee -- I love thee! Thy bright and hazel glance, The mellow lute upon those lips, Whose tender tones entrance; But most, dear heart of hearts, thy proofs That still these words enhance, I love thee -- I love thee! Whatever be thy chance. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VERSES FOR A GUEST ROOM by FRANKLIN PIERCE ADAMS BLACK ROSES by WILLIAM HERVEY ALLEN JR.
