"All The Words In All The World"

All the flowers cannot weave
A garland worthy of your hair,
Not a bird in the four winds
Can sing of you that is so fair.

Only the spheres can sing of you;
Some planet in celestial space,
Hallowed and lonely in the dawn,
Shall sing the poem of your face.

    What a wonderful love poem! How ethereal! I hope she whom this was written to was worthy of it's magnificence!

    reminds me a lot of 'spheres of galilea' by salvadore dali.

    I don't really like the beginning very much. I'm not really sure why, it just doesn't appeal to me. But the second stanza, that's really stunning and beautiful. I think I got a lot of feeling and emotion from that last stanza.

    Also, the rhyming was simple and elegant. I enjoyed this piece.
