Fill A Glass With Golden Wine

    By William Ernest Henley



    Fill a glass with golden wine,
    And the while your lips are wet
    Set their perfume unto mine,
    And forget,
    Every kiss we take and give
    Leaves us less of life to live.

    Yet again! Your whim and mine
    In a happy while have met.
    All your sweets to me resign,
    Nor regret
    That we press with every breath,
    Sighed or singing, nearer death.

    1875
