This heart that flutters near my heart <br />My hope and all my riches is, <br />Unhappy when we draw apart <br />And happy between kiss and kiss: <br />My hope and all my riches -- - yes! -- - <br />And all my happiness. <br /> <br />For there, as in some mossy nest <br />The wrens will divers treasures keep, <br />I laid those treasures I possessed <br />Ere that mine eyes had learned to weep. <br />Shall we not be as wise as they <br />Though love live but a day?<br /><br />James Joyce<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/this-heart-that-flutters-near-my-heart/
