This Libation, Cupid, Take

Ernest Christopher Dowson

 Next Poem          

This libation, Cupid, take,
With the lilies at thy feet;
Cherish Pierrot for their sake
Send him visions strange and sweet,
While he slumbers at thy feet.
Only love kiss him awake!
Only love kiss him awake!

    Ok, honestly this one got me in the feels a bit. Throwback to them ancient romatic vibes and all, love getting lost in them dreams. The idea of love waking you up is just so sweet and pure. Big fan of this idea, need more like this πŸ₯° Made my homework feel less boring haha. Love this!! πŸ’˜πŸŒΌπŸŒΊπŸ’€
