The Arrow

Title:     The Arrow
Author: William Butler Yeats [More Titles by Yeats]

I thought of your beauty and this arrow
Made out of a wild thought is in my marrow.
There's no man may look upon her, no man,
As when newly grown to be a woman,
Blossom pale, she pulled down the pale blossom
At the moth hour and hid it in her bosom.
This beauty's kinder yet for a reason
I could weep that the old is out of season.

[The end]
William Butler Yeats's poem: Arrow
