| Ms. browning wrote Sonnet 43 for her husband. this preserved work of art will forever be inscribed into my very soul for it has touched my soul and still does. Reading this makes me realise that you can never love a person too much. There are no boundaries in love. And as the poet herself has written, love grows stronger beyond life itself. So i share with you, my favourite Sonnet. Enjoy readers :) by Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806-1861) |
| How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height My soul 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 candle-light. I love thee freely, as men strive for Right; I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise. I love thee with a 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. |
