Written in 1893 and published in the poet’s collection The Rose‚ ‘When You Are Old’ is one of W.B. Yeats’ (1865-1939) most popular poems.

WB YEATS A PERSONAL RESPONSE I thoroughly enjoyed studying the work of WB Yeats. He presents key themes and messages in the form of artistic and beautiful imagery.
