Read they poem beauty that is never old.  When buffeted and beaten by life's storms, When by the bitter cares of life oppressed, I want no surer haven than your arms,76 I want no sweeter heaven than your breast.

When over my life's way there falls the blight of sunless days, and nights of starless skies; Enough for me, the clam and steadfast light that softly shines within your loving eyes. 

The world, for me, and all the world can hold is circled by your arms; for me there lies, within the lights and shadows of your eyes, the only beauty that is never old.
