1919 in poetry

none 1919 poetry literature Considering that, all hatred driven hence, The soul recovers radical innocence And learns at last that it is self-delighting, Self-appeasing, self-affrighting, And that its own sweet will is heaven's will; She can, though every face should scowl And every windy quarter howl Or every bellows burst, be happy still. —From A Prayer for My Daughter by W. B. Yeats, written on the birth of his daughter Anne on February 26 Nationality words link to articles with information on the nation's poetry or literature (for instance, Irish or France).
