A Poem That Touches My Heart
This is a poem that I guess everyone knows already. I like this poem a lot and it touches my heart. I would love to dedicate this lovely poem to my love.
"How Do I Love Thee?" By: Elizabeth Barrett Browning
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My sould can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun, and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
This kind of love is such a deep love that never ends even after death. This is the kind of love that touches my heart so very much.
Hugs,
