15 Minutes Of Love Poems - Volume 2 - "Love's Philosophy" & Many More

Percy Bysshe Shelley

Love. What is love? The question is asked by each of us but the answer remains elusive. Dictionaries summon up many words but none fulfill. Love itself is often ethereal, felt but only seen in a glance, a look, a fleeting touch. Part of Love’s beauty is perhaps in the fact that the question never can be adequately answered; its ephemeral, a chimera of the heart and only felt. Our own experiences are unique and personal to ourselves and of little help defining it for another. Love is perhaps best expressed through poetry. As Plato said 2500 years ago “At the touch of a lover, everyone becomes a poet”. Writing a love poem for ones’ partner is seen as the most romantic of gestures. It opens our hearts to another's. Lovers love. Here, in this volume history’s greatest poets convey thoughts, feelings and sentiments of love to you in quick (or bite-size) conversations of verse that can slip into your day and your partner's heart. 01 - Fifteen Minutes of Love - Volume 2 - Love's Philosophy & Other Poems 02 - Love's Philosophy by Percy Bysshe Shelley 03 - Love, The Soul of Poetry by Anne Killigrew 04 - Echoes of Love's House by William Morris 05 - The Growth of Love - An Extract by Robert Seymour Bridges 06 - My True Love Hath My Heart and I Have His by Sir Phillip Sidney 07 - Beloved by Hafiz 08 - Love Like An April Day Beguiles by James Bland Burgess 09 - A Birthday by Christina Rossetti 10 - Annabel Lee by Edgar Allan Poe Duration - 17m.
