My Heart Leaps Up
by William Wordsworth
My heart leaps up when I behold
A rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old,
Or let me die!
The Child is father of the Man;
And I could wish my days to be
Bound each to each by natural piety.
A lovely choice, as always. Thank you for bringing poetry back into my life on a regular basis! Such a treat.
Thanks, Robin! I’m glad you liked it.
