Description:

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.

I Shall Come to Her

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,

I pray I shall not die until

My feet have come to her.

I know somewhere tonight she sits

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.
