Public Domain Poetry And Stories - Upon His Gray Hairs by Robert Herrick Public domain poetry and public domain stories from the literary greats of yesteryear.
Fly me not, though I be gray,
Lady, this I know you'll say;
Better look the roses red,
When with white commingled.
Black your hairs are; mine are white;
This begets the more delight,
When things meet most opposite;
As in pictures we descry
Venus standing Vulcan by.
