There was a Young Lady of Wales by Edward Lear

Who caught a large fish without scales;
When she lifted her hook,
She exclaimed, 'Only look!'
That ecstatic Young Lady of Wales.

Maya by Edwin Arlington Robinson
Through an ascending emptiness of night,
Leaving the flesh and complacent mind
Together in their suffciency behind,
The soul of man went up to a far height;
And where those others would have had no sight
Or sense of else than terror for the blind,
Soul met the Will, and was again consigned
To the surpreme illusion which is right.
'And what goes on up there,' the Mind inquired,
'That I know not already to be true?'-
'More than enough, but not enough for you,'
Said the descending Soul: 'Here in the dark,
Where you are least revealed when most admired,
You may still be the bellows and the spark.'

To The Reader At Part ing by Walt Whitman
Now, dearest comrade, lift me to your face,
We must separate awhile--Here! take from my lips this kiss.
Whoever you are, I give it especially to you;
So long!--And I hope we shall meet again.

There was a Young lady of Portugal by Edward Lear
There was a Young lady of Portugal,
Whose ideas were excessively nautical;
She climbed up a tree,
To examine the sea,
But declared she would never leave Portugal.
