Quotes from A. Norman Jeffares

And said in wonderment My love I have finally come home...

How far apart are she and I! I and the lady of my heart; I yearn in love; she passes by Too proud one kind word to impart. For she left me here to moan, Gold set her fragile thought astray; But, came she in her shift along, I'd take her to my heart today. How lightly on her spirit lies The love that crushes my poor heart! And, ah, she mocks my miseries How far are she and I apart!

I do not love you as I loved The loves I have loved, As I may love others: I know you are not beautiful As some I loved were beautiful, As others may be: I do not hold your counsel dear As I've held others, As I still hold some: And yet There is no truth but you, No love but you-- And Oh! there is no pain But you and me.

All the poems of love are one...

True love Before I fell in love with you My passion was for philosophic proof. For metaphysics and theology. My search was for the esoteric truth, For inner worlds and hid divinity. I only saw the truths inside my mind; My brain was blind To love's mystery.

Silence gives meaning to the language of the eyes; and silence of the lips cannot keep the secret that a glance betrays.

My heart, have you know wisdom thus to despair? My love, my love, why have you left me alone?

we shall never be what we were again'. Old love's refrain.

Can you forget your love for me, Whom now you detest? But that's all one, those times are gone. No doubt 'tis for the best...

And Heaven, which made thee all blooming, Ne'er made thee to wither on mine.

The end of a summer day; Sweet love dead.

Lovers are plenty; but fail to relieve me.

Love and the years- Love is a thing that's gathered, chance by chance, Out of life's ever-changing random dance.

Our souls we'll resign with utmost content. You lying by me, and I lying by you.

Slender graceful girl, admit Me soon into your bed.
