To Spring – William Blake poem
O thou with dewy locks, who lookest down Thro’ the clear windows of the morning, turn Thine angel eyes upon our western isle, Which in full choir hails thy approach, O Spring! The hills tell each other, and the listening Valleys hear; all our longing eyes are turned Up to thy bright pavilions: issue forth,Continue reading “To Spring – William Blake poem”

Dragostea de puiculiță – Mihai Eminescu
Dragostea de puiculiță Ca gușa de porumbiță, Cu gurița mititea, Cu gropițe lângă ea, Cu zâmbirea ei cu haz, Cu gropițe în obraz Și cu dragostea în ochi De mă tem să n-o deochi. Noaptea când te-nchipuiesc Îmi vine să-nnebunesc, Iară ziua aș lua Lumea-n cap de boala ta.
To Winter – poem by William Blake
O Winter! bar thine adamantine doors: The north is thine; there hast thou built thy dark Deep-founded habitation. Shake not thy roofs Nor bend thy pillars with thine iron car.

“The Jumblies” by Edward Lear
I They went to sea in a Sieve, they did, In a Sieve they went to sea: In spite of all their friends could say, On a winter’s morn, on a stormy day, In a Sieve they went to sea! And when the Sieve turned round and round, And every one cried, ‘You’llContinue reading ““The Jumblies” by Edward Lear”
Twas The Month After Christmas
Twas the day after Christmas and all through the house Nothing would fit me, not even a blouse.
Love Song – Poem by Rainer Maria Rilke
How can I keep my soul in me, so that it doesn’t touch your soul? How can I raise it high enough, past you, to other things? I would like to shelter it, among remote lost objects, in some dark and silent place that doesn’t resonate when your depths resound. Yet everything that touches us,Continue reading “Love Song – Poem by Rainer Maria Rilke”
A little while, a little while
A little while, a little while, The weary task is put away, And I can sing and I can smile, Alike, while I have holiday. Why wilt thou go, my harassed heart, What thought, what scene invites thee now? What spot, or near or far, Has rest for thee, my weary brow?
