A prayer for my Daughter

• Written in 1919 and published in 1921 as part of Yeats' collection Micheal Robartesand the Dancer.

• In the poem, a speaker (usually read as Yeats himself) prays about the type of woman he hopes his daughter will become and the kind of life he hopes she will have.

• At its core, the poem expresses a father's heartfelt wishes for his newborn daughter.

• In a larger sense, "A Prayer for my Daughter" is a rich, complex reflection on the joys and struggles of parenthood, Irish politics, and Yeats's own past.
