Sonnet 18
By William Shakespeare
For those of us who studied literature or who have read Shakespeare,
we would have learned that Sonnet 18 is one of the most memorable love poems.
The poet loved his lover so much that he wanted her beauty to remain eternal.
Every time someone reads this poem, his lover's beauty lives again.
His creativity has set his love for her in stone.
To those of you who celebrate this day with your loved one,
may you have a great time expressing love & appreciation to one another.
May you learn to love like our great poet did!
To those who have not found that someone special, don't fret!
Keep hoping and dreaming for that prince charming to ride on his white horse to rescue you.
Or, keep looking out for that damsel in distress who's yearning for you to be her hero.
There's much to learn about love!
p/s: This post is also a tribute the late Prof. Lim Chee Seng from UM who taught us Shakespeare with full passion and related to us the works of this great writer in ways that brought the writer and us closer thus kindling within us a love for his works.
