The Poetry Of Easter by Robert Browning
My Sweet, Crushed Angel by Hafiz, as translated by Daniel Ladinsky You have not danced so badly, my dear, Trying to hold hands with the Beautiful One. Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. The Worms' Contempt by W. Beginning My Studies by Walt Whitman Beginning my studies the first step pleas'd me so much, The mere fact consciousness, these forms, the power of motion, The least insect or animal, the senses, eyesight, love, The first step I say awed me and pleas'd me so much, I have hardly gone and hardly wish'd to go any farther, But stop and loiter all the time to sing it in ecstatic songs. Never yet could I endure Soberness and sadness, Jests I love and sweeter than Honey find I gladness.

You striped in secret with breath-taking whips, Those crooked rough-scored chequers may be pieced To crosses meant for Jesu's; you whom the East With draught of thin and pursuant cold so nips Breathe Easter now; you serged fellowships, You vigil-keepers with low flames decreased, God shall o'er-brim the measures you have spent With oil of gladness, for sackcloth and frieze And the ever-fretting shirt of punishment Give myrrhy-threaded golden folds of ease. This hour my utmost art I prove And speak my passion. So what, my dear, If you do not have the ante to gamble for Real Love.
