How do I love thee?
Sonnet from the Portuguese 44: How do I Love thee?
by Elizabeth Barrett Browning
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 every day’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 the 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.
by Elizabeth Barrett Browning

50-50 analysis♪
Why this poetry:
It was kind of funny to me that what writer thinks (maybe it is only for me)....
Analysis:
1st stanza is one lady is complaining about she got no man.
2nd stanza is one big boy (I think this might be one man who like lady but he didn't
have chance to get close to her) tell the lady what's problem with her.
3rd~4th stanza is conversation between big boy and lady, lady ask what she would do
for get a man, and boy tells what to do.
JK♪:
I think deep meaning in this poetry is by poetry, writer want to show what man wants (sharing bed, and money) and what lady should do it for man to get fine man. I think it isn't proper to say in words, but it is kind of fun to write as poetry, to make ladies easy to share bed together or money.

50-50
by Langston Hughes
I’m all alone in this world, she said,
Ain’t got nobody to share my bed,
Ain’t got nobody to hold my hand—
The truth of the matter’s
I ain’t got no man.
Big Boy opened his mouth and said,
Trouble with you is
You ain’t got no head!
If you had a head and used your mind
You could have me with you
All the time.
She answered, Babe, what must I do?
He said, Share your bed—
And your money, too.

Acts of Love
Acts of Love
by Pam Rehm
If endear is earned
and is meant to identify
two halves
then it composes
one meaning
which means
a token
a knot
a note
a noting in the head
of how it feels
to have your heart
be the dear one

why this poetry:
I read this poetry in when I was young. I choose this poetry because is nostalgic.
analysis:
1st stanza: if you being loved, or love someone, it is time to find partner.
2nd~4th stanza:it means token, knot, and note. I think in this part author made rhyme and made word out of token. Word knot and note rhyme, sounds same. Also, their also can made up with token. In verbal meaning, token is mark, which in poet, it means mark of love, and knot means bond between couples. Note means mark as token.
5th stanza: first word rhymes with note, and it means don't think about it,
6th stanza: just feel the heart and follow it.
JK♪: hmm....hard...deep meaning inside? I think it's just saying of love that covered with hard words.
