On Valentine's Day, I give you love poetry from a master of love poetry, e. e. cummings. Edward Estlin Cummings (1894-1962) was renowned for his poetry although it has gone in and out of style over the years (sometimes popularity is a curse when it comes to critical evaluation). Here is one of the classics most of us have read and loved. See also
