The Desiderata of Love A Collection of Poems for the Beloved
This collection of inspirational poems by the famous poet Max Ehrmann brings together twenty-four poems of love between men and women. They beautifully express his eternal optimism and undying love of human beings and their joyful relationship with each other. lf some there be with aged mien Who wisely smile at love. And say 'tis but a childish dream And one they are above, To them I say who sit and smile, Because they so prefer, My feet have come to her. Within her father's home, While I a foot-loose wanderer Am destined still to roam. But I shall find her out I know And thus within her place She calmly sits and waits for me, And she will know my face. And one sweet day, we two shall meet, Whatever may occur; And so content I wander on, For I shall come to her.
