15 Minutes Of Love Poems - Volume 5 - "Shall I Compare Thee" & Many More

Ella Wheeler Wilcox

Love. What is love? The question is asked by each of us but the answer remains elusive. Dictionaries summon up many words but none fulfill. Love itself is often ethereal, felt but only seen in a glance, a look, a fleeting touch. Part of Love’s beauty is perhaps in the fact that the question never can be adequately answered; its ephemeral, a chimera of the heart and only felt. Our own experiences are unique and personal to ourselves and of little help defining it for another. Love is perhaps best expressed through poetry. As Plato said 2500 years ago “At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet”. Writing a love poem for ones’ partner is seen as the most romantic of gestures. It opens our hearts to another's. Lovers love. Here, in this volume history’s greatest poets convey thoughts, feelings and sentiments of love to you in quick (or bite-size) conversations of verse that can slip into your day and your partner's heart. 01 - Fifteen Minutes of Love - Volume 5 - Shall I CompareThee to a Summer's Day & Other Poems 02 - Sonnet 18 - Shall I Compare Thee to a Summers Day by William Shakespeare 03 - I Love You by Ella Wheeler Wilcox 04 - Rose of All the World by D H Lawrence 05 - Trust Thou Thy Love by John Ruskin 06 - Lover's Petition by Ralph Waldo Emerson 07 - Helas! by Oscar Wilde 08 - Modern Love II by George Meredith 09 - Buried Love by Sara Teasdale 10 - The Hill by Rupert Brooke 11 - Love by Sarah Fuller Adams 12 - Intoxicated By the Wine of Love by Farid ud-Din Attar 13 - Lovers' Infiniteness by John Donne 14 - Sonnets Are Full of Love by Christina Rossetti Duration - 17m.
