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...GRANDMOTHER'S STORY OF BUNKER HILL BATTLE by OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES COMFORT IN AFFLICTION by WILLIAM EDMONSTOUNE AYTOUN THY BIRTHDAY by CLAUDE A.
