One for Yeats ... and the Girls

In recognition of the anniversary of William Butler Yeats’ birthday (June 13, 1865), as well as the fact that my two daughters also have birthdays around this time of year, I thought I’d share the poet’s June 1919 poem, “A Prayer for My Daughter.” It’s not one of his most famous poetic works, but it’s certainly a thoughtful and heartfelt one.
