When you are old and gray and full of sleep take down this book and slowly read of the soft look your eyes had once and of their shadows deep... Does anybody know where I can find it?
William Butler Yeats ranked #28 on top 500 poets on date 16 December 2020 has written many wonderful poems which are preserved in time. We love reading his poems.
