The Wheel

The Wheel written by William Butler Yeats

From The Tower (book), 1928

Link to further information

The Wheel Through winter-time we call on spring, And through the spring on summer call, And when abounding hedges ring Declare that winter's best of all; And after that there's nothing good Because the spring-time has not come — Nor know that what disturbs our blood Is but our longing for the tomb. 1928
