There was a song that lived within the heart Then Summer held it in her bounteous hand,Īnd many wandered through its blooming ways,īut ne’er the one for whom the work was planned. There was a garden planned in Spring’s young days, He whistled soft whistlings I knew were for me,Īs if they had not dreamed what he meant:Īnd yet it was my heart that wanted to stay. Peace shall thatch the roof and love shall latch the door-īut what if I heard my first love calling me once more? Take me far away to the hills that hide your home Hold me on your heart as the brave sea holds the foam, Let our flight be far in sun or blowing rain-īut what if I heard my first love calling me again? Lift me up in your love as a light wind lifts a swallow,
Look back with longing eyes and know that I will follow, O my much praised but-not-altogether-satisfactory lady. So is the slow cooling of our chivalrous passion, When the hot water gives out or goes tepid, Through all the singing currents of my blood. Hold my heart, my brain will take fire of youĪnd flame will sweep in a swift rushing flood My true love hath my heart and I have his.Ĭlose my ears, I can hear your footsteps fall,Īnd without voice I still can to you call.īreak off my arms, and I can embrace you, So still, methought, in me his hurt did smart:īoth equal hurt, in this change sought our bliss, My heart was wounded with his wounded heart įor as from me on him his hurt did light, His heart his wound received from my sight He loves my heart, for once it was his own
My heart in him his thoughts and senses guides: I hold his dear, and mine he cannot miss My true-love hath my heart and I have his,īy just exchange one for the other given: We watch the swans and never a word is said. How still you are-your gaze is on my face. We watch the swans that sleep in a shadowy place,Īnd now and again one wakes and uplifts its head That seem to heavy for tremulous water to hold.
The lake bears up their reflection in broken bars Look on the lights that link it with chains of gold, Night is over the park, and a few brave stars 7 Deep Meaningful Love Poems Short Love Poemsĭiscover a curated collection of the best short love poems that pack a punch with their brevity and depth of feeling.įeaturing famous works and heartfelt expressions of love, these poems capture the essence of romance in just a few lines.įind all these beautiful short love poems in one place here and experience the power of poetry to express the most profound emotions in the simplest words.
