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 candlelight.






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.—

Elizabeth Barrett Browning





Love is both serious and fun, never in equal measures.

Maddening, in all definitions of the word.

I hope you enjoy these images and the timeless sonnet by Elizabeth Barrett Browning.


All images are in the public domain to the best of my knowledge, all graphic tweaking was done by me
