  • zzzzzzzz...

  • If that's a critical comment then anybody could say that for any reason or with any motivation. You have to give a full, reasoned explanation of your low opinion to be taken seriously. Otherwise your comment will be deleted.

  • No...it's just a comment on the sleepiness of the poem...I like Yeats...well I would...being Irish.

  • Well that's all right then. I always welcome good mannered remarks even if they are pointing out  something amiss.

  • There's thirty-two more poems by Yeats I've read here. I hope you like some of them.

    Very good, i've never before heard/read any Yeates.. Until now. Thanks for uploads.

  • @SpokenVerse Great keep on

  • lovely prayer! thank you.

  • @SpokenVerse I was just being lazy.....sorry...

  • Oh my gosh! SpokenVerse, thanks so much for this. I've never heard or read this one before. I know that love has pitched its tent in the place of excrement. And might've used that for my Christmas post on my blog. But I think I'll use this. Wow, this poem really blessed me this morning. Thanks so much. -C
