William Morris was a revolutionary artist whose work as a poet, writer, designer, craftsman, and activist dramatically changed the ideologies of Victorian Britain.

"Love is Enough" is a poem written by William Morris, a renowned British poet, craftsman, and socialist activist of the 19th century. It was first published in 1873 as part of a collection of poems under the same title. The poem reflects Morris's belief in the power of love to overcome adversity and bring fulfillment to life.

Here is the poem:

Love is enough: though the world be a-waning,

And the woods have no voice but the voice of complaining,

Though the sky be too dark for dim eyes to discover

The gold-cups and daisies fair blooming thereunder,

Though the hills be held shadows, and the sea a dark wonder,

And this day draw a veil over all deeds passed over,

Yet their hands shall not tremble, their feet shall not falter;

The void shall not weary, the fear shall not alter

These lips and these eyes of the loved and the lover.
