The Collected Poems of Rupert Brooke

By: Brooke, Rupert

Here in the dark, O heart; Alone with the enduring Earth, and Night, And Silence, and the warm strange smell of clover; Clear-visioned, thoughit break you; far apart From the dead best, the dear and old delight; Throw down your dreams of immortality, O faithful, O foolish lover Here's peace for you, and surety; here the one Wisdom - the truth - "All day the good glad sun Showers love and labour on you, wine and song; The greenwood laughs, the wind blows, all day long Till night." And night ends all things.... Rupert Chawner Brooke was an English poet known for his idealistic war sonnets written during the First World War, especially "The Soldier". He was also known for his boyish good looks, which were said to have prompted the Irish poet W. B. Yeats to describe him as "the handsomest young man in England".
