Love

Love is not a thing to understand
Love is not a thing to feel
Love is not a thing to give and receive
Love is a thing only to become
And eternally be

hope-poem
 

Hope

"Hope" is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all,

Life

I celebrate myself, and sing myself
And what I assume you shall assume
For every atom belonging to me
as good belongs to you

TYGER

Death

Tyger! Tyger! burning bright
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry
