Failed Love Poems

Sep 26 14:38 UTC 1995

Attempt #1:

                Roses are red,
                Violets are blue,
                Daffodils are yellow,
                and white blooms the rue.

Attempt #2:

                Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
                Or perhaps to a blossom or a ship under way?
                Or maybe an urn is more to your liking?
                An ocean?  A forest?  A tortoise?  A viking?

Sigh.

Attempt #3:
                Shall I compare thee to a summer's night?
                Hot, muggy, with mosquito bite?

Attempt #4:

                How do I love thee?  Let me count the ways.
                I've asked thee once and twice and then again
                To let me with my counting now begin.
                If thou doest not allow it, I must leave thee
                For pleasures unenumerated cannot please me.
