    This is one of my favourites... And my most favourite love poem after those of Shakespeare. One'd just love it!

    One of my favorite peoms. I first learnt this poem 12 years back, and I still recite this poem occasionally... the imagery is very vivid, and one can impulsively replay everything....

    I LOVE this poem....But the ending is so sad. Everytime I read this poem, tears swell upon my face. This poem is one of my favorite. I first read it two years ago and kept a copy of it. Unfortunately, I lost it. Now, I'm really happy that I found it again.
