Althought the poem is generally thought to be a love poem the poet never actually declares his love for this lady.


              She Walks in Beauty 


She walks in Beauty like the night

Of cloudless climes and starry skies 

And all that's best of dark and bright 

Meet in her aspect and her eyes 

Thus mellowed to that tender light 

Which heaven to gaudy day denies 


One shade the more one ray the less 

Had half impaired the nameless grace 

Which waves in every raven tress 

Or softly lightens o'er her face 

When thoughts serenely sweet express 

How pure how dear their dwelling-place 


And on that cheek and o'er that brow 

So soft so calm yet eloquent 

The smiles that win the tints that glow 

But tell of days in goodness spent 

A mind at peace with all below 

A heart whose love is innocent  

                                                -Lord  Byron

  Walt Whitman Afoot and light-hearted I take  to the open road healthy free the word before me  The long brown path before me leading wherever I choose. Henceforth  I ask  not good-fortune   I myself am good-fortune  Henceforth  I whimper no more postpone no more need nothing  Done with indoor complaints libraries querulous criticisms  Strong and content I travel the open road The earth that is sufficient  I do not want the constellation any nearer  I know they are very well where they are  I know they suffice for the who belong to them  (Still here I carry my old delicious burdens  I carry them men and woman I carry them with me wherever I go   I swear it' is impossible for me to get rid of them  I am fill d with them and I will fill them in return )                                 - Walt Whitman (1819 to 1892 )
