Check out the Sonnets. Lots of great stuff in there. Sonnet 18 is the classic of course:\n Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?\nThou art more lovely and more temperate:\nRough winds do shake the darling buds of May,\nAnd summer's lease hath all too short a date:\nSometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,\nAnd often is his gold complexion dimm'd;\nAnd every fair from fair sometime declines,\nBy chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;\nBut thy eternal summer shall not fade\nNor lose possession of that fair thou owest;\nNor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,\nWhen in eternal lines to time thou growest:\n  So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,\n  So long lives this and this gives life to thee.

He is talking about the truest form of love, the union between two souls, spiritual union.  Check out the website I've attached.  It will take you through the poem line by line, explaining it.\n\nGood luck with it.  I've always found John Donne's poetry a bit heavy for me.

I could probably make one up or find a few. There's a great site for love quotes and poems. Good luck!

Well, I tried but I need to know more about the lines in the poem.   Maybe you'll have better luck with these sites.\n\nhttp://www.bartleby.com/\n\nhttp://www.allexperts.com/user.cgi?m=4&expID=50938&catID=678\n\nhttp://www.online-literature.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12717\n\nhttp://www.thent.com/poetry.htm\n\nhttp://lii.org/search/file/poetry

Let me not to the marriage of true minds \nAdmit impediments. Love is not love \nWhich alters when it alteration finds, \nOr bends with the remover to remove: \nO no! it is an ever-fixed mark \nThat looks on tempests and is never shaken; \nIt is the star to every wandering bark, \nWhose worth's unknown, although his height be taken \nLove's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks \nWithin his bending sickle's compass come: \nLove alters not with his brief hours and weeks, \nBut bears it out even to the edge of doom. \nIf this be error and upon me proved, \nI never writ, nor no man ever loved. \n\nIn the first part he is saying that love is permanent and fixed, it is not something that changes.  He then uses metaphors to show examples of what love is (a star that guides a ship).  Finally, he shows that love is not affected by time passing (whereas physical beauty fades).  The important thing about this sonnet is the permanence of true love, and its basis not in the physical but in the spiritual.

Sonnet 18, "Shall I Compare Thee To A Summers Day" is a good starting place. If you like that passage, try "A Midsummer Night's Dream". \n\nhttp://www-tech.mit.edu/Shakespeare/midsummer/full.html\n\nBe warned. Shakespeare seemed to hide a lot in his writings. The Bard is bawdy.\n\nhttp://observer.guardian.co.uk/uk_news/story/0,,1739819,00.html\n\nAlso, for an easier read that is full of wit, sarcasm and humor, try Samuel Clemens aka Mark Twain. "Life On The Mississippi" is one of my favorite reads.

Romeo and Juliet Quotes\n\nACT II\n\nBut soft!  What light through yonder window breaks?  It is the East and Juliet is the sun!  Arise fair sun and kill the envious moon. \n \n\nDeny thy father and refuse they name!  Or, if thou wilt not, be but sworn my love, and I’ll no longer be a Capulet. \n \n\nI know not how to tell thee who I am.  My name, dear saint, is hateful to myself, because it’s an enemy to thee. \n \n\nO, swear not by the moon, the fickle moon, the inconstant moon, that monthly changes in her circle orb, Lest that thy love prove likewise variable. \n \n\nO, wilt that leave me so unsatisfied? \n \n\nGood night, good night!  Parting is such sweet sorrow that I shall say good night till it be morrow. \n \n\nThese violent delights have violent ends.

(This was actually a question on Yahooligans!)\n\nDear Earl,\nWhat types of poetry are there?\nNajee, Age 12 \n\nDear Najee,\nThere are so many types of poetry that I couldn't list them all! One of my favorites is the haiku, a Japanese poetry form that usually doesn't rhyme. Haikus are only 17 syllables and three lines long! Another short poem style is the cinquain, which is only five lines. One funny kind of rhyming poetry is the limerick. I bet you knew William Shakespeare wrote plays like Romeo and Juliet, but did you know he wrote poetry too? Shakespeare wrote many sonnets -- poems that are 14 lines with a precise rhyming pattern. Our poetry category has lots of poetry you can explore -- maybe you'll want to write your own! \n\nEarl

William Shakespeare (Known as The Bard of Avon)\n\nSonnet 29\n\nWhen, in disgrace with fortune and men's eyes,\nI all alone beweep my outcast state\nAnd trouble deaf heaven with my bootless cries\nAnd look upon myself and curse my fate,\nWishing me like to one more rich in hope,\nFeatured like him, like him with friends possess'd,\nDesiring this man's art and that man's scope,\nWith what I most enjoy contented least;\nYet in these thoughts myself almost despising,\nHaply I think on thee, and then my state,\nLike to the lark at break of day arising\nFrom sullen earth, sings hymns at heaven's gate;\nFor thy sweet love remember'd such wealth brings\nThat then I scorn to change my state with kings.

The tip here is not to write a love poem, but rather use someone elses to show your love for your partner.\nIf you can do something sweet like remember a romantic poem and then recite it word for word to your partner, then their heart will be yours forever.\nThere are many quite short love verses that you can memorise, some of the most famous of these of course are the words of Shakespeare.\nRemember a romantic few lines from one of his romantic plays or perhaps one of his love sonnets.\nIf you can recite lines such as 'Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds' then you will really show the effort that you went to and this will go down very well with your partner; you will be the king of romance!
