  Christina Georgina Rossetti, “Where Innocent Bright-Eyed Daisies Are”

• My heart is like a singing bird Whose nest is in a water'd shoot; My heart is like an apple-tree Whose boughs are bent with thick-set fruit; My heart is like a rainbow shell That paddles in a halcyon sea; My heart is gladder than all these, Because my love is come to me. Raise me a daïs of silk and down; Hang it with vair and purple dyes; Carve it in doves and pomegranates, And peacocks with a hundred eyes; Work it in gold and silver grapes, In leaves and silver fleurs-de-lys; Because the birthday of my life Is come, my love is come to me.

  Christina Rossetti

  Life, Work, Eye

  Christina Georgina Rossetti, “A Birthday”

• Come to me in the silence of the night,
  Come to me in the speaking silence of a dream.
  Come with soft rounded cheeks and eyes as bright as sunlight on a stream.
  Come back in tears,
  O memory, hope, love of finished years.

  Christina Rossetti

  Dream, Memories, Eye

  'Echo'

• I have no wit, no words, no tears;
  My heart within me like a stone
  Is numb'd too much for hopes or fears;
  Look right, look left, I dwell alone;
  I lift mine eyes, but dimm'd with grief
  No everlasting hills I see;
  My life is in the falling leaf:
  O Jesus, quicken me.

  Christina Rossetti

  Jesus, Grief, Fall
