The HUMP- getting through mid-week with Wednesday’s Wisdom Part 6 – Sonnets

Here’s a little love for your Wednesday:

Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments. Love is not love

Which alters when it alteration finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no! it is an ever-fixed mark

That looks on tempests and is never shaken;

It is the star to every wandering bark,

Whose worth’s unknown, although his height be taken.

Love’s not Time’s fool, though rosy lips and cheeks

Within his bending sickle’s compass come:

Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,

But bears it out even to the edge of doom.

If this be error and upon me proved,

I never writ, nor no man ever loved.

William Shakespeare

If that has you wanting more check out Shakespeare’s Love Sonnets illustrated by Caitlin Keegan. The first time I saw this it was featured on Valentine’s day (1 month ago) on Book by its Cover. What’s your favorite Shakespeare sonnet?
