Sweets for my Sweet

~Sonnet 116~

Let me not to the marriage of true minds

Admit impediments. Love is not love

Which alters when it alterations finds,

Or bends with the remover to remove:

O no; it is an ever fixed mark,

That looks at 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 prov'd

---I never writ, nor man ever lov'd

William Shakespeare

My love alters not and is never shaken. Happy Valentine's Day!
