True Love's Kiss

What would romance be without a little Shakespeare? Such notions of romantic love poems are timeless gems, and can not be made obsolete.

I challenge everyone try to surprise your true love by finding that special spot that you share. As spring unfolds new summer blooms, there is a garden that awaits for a lover to share a poem such as this.

While you are embraced with your partner, ask in a loving jovial manner manner, "So is now a good time to recite a love poem to you?"

Most likely she will say yes, expecting you to come up with something of the "Roses are Red..."

Instead, look into her eyes, smile and recite the love sonnet while you gently stroke her face. Try the sonnet below. If this is too long, just memorize the first four lines and the last two.

Enjoy!

Shakespeare Love Sonnet 18

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date.

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimmed,
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimmed.

But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest,
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st.
So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
