William Morris Poems

1.

As the desert and the raging sea.
We are not bystanders to these awesome creatures,
For each finds a home in me.

The Best Poem Of William Morris

Write

What shall I write?
That all men are thieves and fools,
And all women foolish?
That tomorrow, like today, mirrors yesterday?
That hope must conquer expectation,
Lest fear have dominion?
That good is embattled,
Whereas evil abounds?
And that peace is ephemeral,
Or that kind words are short and easy to speak,
But that their echoes are endless.
