Glad and fair is my young love, He to whom my pulses move, He whose pleasure I obey -- Glad as dawn, and fair as day. Very strong and sweet is he That hath lordship over me -- He to whom I all am given -- Strong as death, and sweet as heaven. Mary Mother, grant me this Only, out of all thy bliss: Let his longing never tire -- (He whose lips are ice and fire --) Make me worth his whole desire! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A CHARACTER by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A LITTLE PERSON by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A MAN'S SONG by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A MAN-CHILD'S LULLABY by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A PORTRAIT by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A ROBIN'S SONG by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A SCHOOLGIRL SPEAKS by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER A STITUATION by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER ABSENCES by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER AMULETS by WILLIAM BRIAN HOOKER |
