LOVE POEMS, WHICH ARE THE BEST?

Have you ever written a poem for your beloved on a special day? Do you choose a love poem from a book of your favorites? Perhaps you prefer music. You like songs with good lyrics, and that is what you write for love. Do you prefer a song that has already been written? Again, the lyrics are a love poem. I believe the music alone is love written by the composer in the language of music. Bach, Handel, all the classical musicians wrote the music of love.

Love poems are hiding everywhere! Song lyrics are poems. So are the messages in the cards you give.

The truth is, we're surrounded by poetry, and it is all love poetry. Whether it is written by Elizabeth Browning, Shakespeare, King David, or Solomon, it is love poetry. The bible is full of ancient poems written to honor God's love for man and man''s love for God.

In my collection, I have a book of poems called, "Bittersweet In My Soul." It is a book of love poems by Mary Queen of Scots, sister to Queen Elizabeth, who locked Mary in the tower to be murdered later. While Mary was in the tower, she even wrote about her love for her sister Elizabeth.

No matter what your favorite poem is, it is one of the best love poems ever written. Awards come and titles are granted, but only the reader can say, "This is the best love poem ever written."
