O mistress mine, where are you roaming?
O stay and hear! your true-love's coming
That can sing both high and low;
Trip no further, pretty sweeting,
Journey's end in lovers' meeting--
Every wise man's son doth know.
What is love? 'tis not hereafter;
Present mirth hath present laughter;
What's to come is still unsure:
In delay there lies no plenty,--
Then come kiss me, Sweet and twenty,
Youth's a stuff will not endure.
William Shakespeare

An updated version for the young: SEIZE THE WAVES
O distressed mind is your phone roaming?
O stay and hear your true love's phoning
Cells can sing high and low
Trip no further pretty tweeting
Journey's end in phony meeting
Every wise man's son doth know
iphone love: 'tis the hereafter
present mirth twitter laughter
What's to come is still unsure
in delay there lies no plenty
then come hit me(back) tweet me twenty
Youth's so tough it must endure
enjoy!

exellent the manner in which he ascribes to youthful love to which no bounds are established and how now the two blissful lovers know not what fortunes lie ahead.
