SHY one, Shy one, <br />Shy one of my heart, <br />She moves in the firelight <br />pensively apart. <br />She carries in the dishes, <br />And lays them in a row. <br />To an isle in the water <br />With her would I go. <br />With catries in the candles, <br />And lights the curtained room, <br />Shy in the doorway <br />And shy in the gloom; <br />And shy as a rabbit, <br />Helpful and shy. <br />To an isle in the water <br />With her would I fly.<br /><br />William Butler Yeats<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/to-an-isle-in-the-water/
