countryside.

To the Virgins, Make Much of Time
Though serious in Herrick's day, this poem is humorous to the modern reader, and
it will make your lover smile. And what a way to persuade someone that it's time to take your vows.

Sweet Disorder
A very sensual poem about the erotic appeal of certain garments. Send this poem to your lover along with a note about what you want them to wear tonight. You're sure to have a surprise waiting
when you get home.
