Poem #5

The Passionate Shepard to His Love
by Christopher Marlowe  p 709


I like this poem because it's about LOVE! Of course, I enjoy reading poems and novels about romance, such a great topic isn't it? Because there's so much meaning to love, different kinds of interpretations, and different emotions. Love, I don't think, has a definite translation, there are so many different things that equal love, from all different kinds of opinions, and to come across this poem is just like stumbling across another set of eyes of a lover.
This poem is worthy of sharing because it is a good poem that you can, also, share with your loved ones. We all enjoy loving others and being loved in return so can relate to the strong emotions of the narrator. Maybe this poem could be fictional, or maybe it could be real, promoting love and bliss and setting an example that true love can exist? Maybe there are some good guys out there? HaHa. Whether you've found your soul mate or haven't yet, don't be shy from this poem and take it into consideration when you're planning your next romantic picnic or rendezvous. This could be passed down from here to there, and you never know, it could make someone's day. So let's make that special someone feel special indeed! :)

  1. I may be odd, but really don't like to reed poems about love. If I were to write one, it would be because it was heartfelt. I do like to watch romance movies, but reading poems like this is just not my cup of tea! Sometimes they get too graphic :)

  2. Everyone has their own interest, so it doesn't matter. We all are into different things.
