Let’s get mushy

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways…”
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.

I am giving my husband this book of poems and letters by Robert Browning and Elizabeth Barrett Browning. I thought it’ll be nice to start Valentine’s with the poem above.

Yes, its Valentine’s Day and we’re allowed to get mushy and lovey-dovey.

I just finished reading Kwentong Tambay and I laughed and cried through the pages of this book. I was touched by Batjay’s letters to his wife. Here’s A 12th aniversary letter to Jet from Jay (Tagalog)

And I had to browse and search through Toni’s archives to discover this beautiful post , 3 years

Sometime in the fall I was directed to this post in the Meet and Greet Weekend Game at Michele’s blog and read this post from Carmi, And I just have to share it with you all: Sing it Like the Flintstones
