bees, my
skin smells
of sun, the
insides of
roses, I want
to eat that
light. Every
thing that
grows does.

“When You Are Old” by William Butler Yeats
Posted in The Daily Poems, tagged When You Are Old, William Butler Yeats on June 18, 2012| 1 Comment »
WHEN you are old and gray and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face among a crowd of stars.
William Butler Yeats

Three Haiku by Richard Wright

78
An apple blossom
trembling on a sunlit branch
from the weight of bees
93
Leaving its nest,
the sparrow sinks a second,
then opens its wings
95
Like a fishhook,
the sunflower’s long shadow
hovers in the lake
Richard Wright
