Actually it was WILLIAM BUTLER YEATS that wondrous Irish Poet.

I prefer song lyrics to poems, as I can relate to them. Well,... kind of. The genres of music I like deal with very sensitive topics, but I can understand the point. I do, however, I did like “Grandmother” by William McIlvanney. Didn't do Shakespear in school, so I can't really comment
