My husband and I are celebrating our anniversary soon and are taking a vacation to a romantic, special spot. I am looking for an Irish love poem to personalize some glasses that I will put in a gift basket with snacks, wine, candles, etc. I can have up to six lines of text.
--------------------
The famous Irish tenor John McCormack sang this song written by an English poet Ben Johnson "Drink to me, only, with thine eyes, And I will pledge with mine ; Or leave a kiss but in the cup, And I'll not look for wine." or Wine comes in at the mouth And love comes in at the eye; That's all we shall know for truth Before we grow old and die. William Butler Yeats 1865 - 1939 The Green Helmet and Other Poems [1910], A Drinking Song or I'm only a beer teetotaler, not a champagne teetotaler. I don't like beer. George Bernard Shaw 1856 - 1950 Candida [1898], act III
