Nicotine
-Ezra Pound

A Hymn to the Dope Goddess of the murmuring courts, Nicotine, my Nicotine, Houri of the mystic sports, trailing-robed in gabardine, Gliding where the breath hath glided, Hidden sylph of filmy veils, Truth behind the dream is veiléd E'en as thou art, smiling ever, ever gliding, Wraith of wraiths, dim lights dividing Purple, grey, and shadow green Goddess, Dream-grace, Nicotine. Goddess of the shadow's lights, Nicotine, my Nicotine, Some would set old Earth to rights, Thou I none such ween. Veils of shade our dream dividing, Houris dancing, intergliding, Wraith of wraiths and dream of faces, Silent guardian of the old unhallowed places, Utter symbol of all old sweet druidings, Mem'ry of witched wold and green, Nicotine, my Nicotine: Neath the shadows of thy weaving Dreams that need no undeceiving, Loves that longer hold me not, Dreams I dream not any more, Fragrance of old sweet forgotten places, Smiles of dream-lit, flit-by faces All as perfume Arab-sweet Deck the high road to thy feet As were Godiva's coming fated And all the April's blush belated Were lain before her, carpeting The stones of Coventry with spring, So thou my mist-enwreathéd queen, Nicotine, white Nicotine, Riding engloried in they hair Mak'st by-road of our dreams Thy thorough-fare.

Tree at My Window -Robert Frost Tree at my window, window tree,  My sash is lowered when night comes on;  But let there never be curtain drawn  Between you and me. Vague dream-head lifted out of the ground,  And thing next most diffuse to cloud,  Not all your light tongues talking aloud  Could be profound. But tree, I have seen you taken and tossed,  And if you have seen me when I slept,  You have seen me when I was taken and swept  And all but lost. That day she put our heads together,  Fate had her imagination about her,  Your head so much concerned with outer,  Mine with inner, weather.

Corinna's Going A-Maying
by Robert Herrick

GET up, get up for shame, the blooming morn Upon her wings presents the god unshorn.        See how Aurora throws her fair        Fresh-quilted colours through the air :        Get up, sweet slug-a-bed, and see        The dew bespangling herb and tree. Each flower has wept and bow'd toward the east Above an hour since : yet you not dress'd ;        Nay ! not so much as out of bed?        When all the birds have matins said        And sung their thankful hymns, 'tis sin,        Nay, profanation to keep in, Whereas a thousand virgins on this day Spring, sooner than the lark, to fetch in May. Rise and put on your foliage, and be seen To come forth, like the spring-time, fresh and green,        And sweet as Flora.  Take no care        For jewels for your gown or hair :        Fear not ; the leaves will strew        Gems in abundance upon you : Besides, the childhood of the day has kept, Against you come, some orient pearls unwept ;        Come and receive them while the light        Hangs on the dew-locks of the night :        And Titan on the eastern hill        Retires himself, or else stands still Till you come forth.   Wash, dress, be brief in praying : Few beads are best when once we go a-Maying. Come, my Corinna, come ; and, coming, mark How each field turns a street, each street a park        Made green and trimm'd with trees : see how        Devotion gives each house a bough        Or branch : each porch, each door ere this        An ark, a tabernacle is, Made up of white-thorn neatly interwove ; As if here were those cooler shades of love.        Can such delights be in the street        And open fields and we not see't ?        Come, we'll abroad ; and let's obey        The proclamation made for May : And sin no more, as we have done, by staying ; But, my Corinna, come, let's go a-Maying. There's not a budding boy or girl this day But is got up, and gone to bring in May.        A deal of youth, ere this, is come        Back, and with white-thorn laden home.        Some have despatch'd their cakes and cream        Before that we have left to dream : And some have wept, and woo'd, and plighted troth, And chose their priest, ere we can cast off sloth :        Many a green-gown has been given ;        Many a kiss, both odd and even :        Many a glance too has been sent        From out the eye, love's firmament ; Many a jest told of the keys betraying This night, and locks pick'd, yet we're not a-Maying. Come, let us go while we are in our prime ; And take the harmless folly of the time.        We shall grow old apace, and die        Before we know our liberty.        Our life is short, and our days run        As fast away as does the sun ; And, as a vapour or a drop of rain Once lost, can ne'er be found again,        So when or you or I are made        A fable, song, or fleeting shade,        All love, all liking, all delight        Lies drowned with us in endless night. Then while time serves, and we are but decaying, Come, my Corinna, come, let's go a-Maying.

I have saved all my ribbons for thee
