Romantic PoemsThese are entries to a Washington Post competition asking for a rhyme with the most romantic first line, but the least romantic second line:
Love may be beautiful, love may be bliss,
I thought that I could love no other
Roses are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you.
Of loving beauty you float with grace.
Kind, intelligent, loving and hot.
I want to feel your sweet embrace,
I love your smile, your face, and your eyes.
My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
I see your face when I am dreaming.
My love, you take my breath away.
My feelings for you no words can tell
What inspired this amorous rhyme?
