Few poets after William Butler Yeats could reach the depths of human feelings using such simple words, touching images and emotions that reverberate still in the minds of those who love poetry, without distinction of Modern and Modernist. Some of them, like When You are Old and Politics are such insightful, soft and mindful of what it means to be old and young at the same time. Something that, whether we wish to, or not, one can suddenly feel in a moment of when you were actually relaxing, and rue; yet cannot dismiss as lightly as when we are too young, like teenagers. The two poems exhibit contrariness only inasmuch as When You are Old was written when Yeats was quite young. The other, Politics has nothing to do with politics, but written when he was near the end of a lifetime of writing poems. Still simple and touching. This is a collection of poems that are a tribute to his art, in a style resemblant: short, poignant, yet touching a deep chord in many hearts.
