The Wild Swans at Coole

The trees are in their autumn beauty,
The woodland paths are dry,
Under the October twilight the water
Mirrors a still sky;
Upon the brimming water among the stones
Are nine and fifty swans.

The nineteenth Autumn has come upon me
Since I first made my count;
I saw, before I had well finished,
All suddenly mount
And scatter wheeling in great broken rings
Upon their clamorous wings.

I have looked upon those brilliant creatures,
And now my heart is sore.
All’s changed since I, hearing at twilight,
The first time on this shore,
The bell-beat of their wings above my head,
Trod with a lighter tread.

Unwearied still, lover by lover,
They paddle in the cold,
Companionable streams or climb the air;
Their hearts have not grown old;
Passion or conquest, wander where they will,
Attend upon them still.

But now they drift on the still water
Mysterious, beautiful;
Among what rushes will they build,
By what lake’s edge or pool
Delight men’s eyes, when I awake some day
To find they have flown away?

by 👉 William Butler Yeats

SPECIAL LOVE POEMS FOR GIRLFRIENDS

Her eyes are like the stars in the sky, Her sweetest smile is what makes me high. Sometimes I wish I could hug her forever, And till the end of our life, be together. Thank God for making me meet this angel, Who has made my ordinary life so very special. I promise to love you till the end of my life, let me be your hero, my beloved, my wife. If i could give you one thing in life, i would give you the ability to see yourself through my eyes only then would you realize how special you are to me.

You never fail to amaze me everyday there is something new that makes me love you even more than the day before.
