A Poet To His Beloved Poem by William Butler Yeats

A Poet To His Beloved

Rating: 3.2


I BRING you with reverent hands
The books of my numberless dreams,
White woman that passion has worn
As the tide wears the dove-grey sands,
And with heart more old than the horn
That is brimmed from the pale fire of time:
White woman with numberless dreams,
I bring you my passionate rhyme.

The intimacy and tenderness with which the poet presents dreams to his beloved is mind blowing.
