Love Poems
Love poems is such a popular genre of poetry that it comprises between two-thirds and three-quarters of all the poems-related searches online. This should not be surprising as love is undeniably the most powerful ruler of our world. Since time immemorial, classical poets reflected that status quo in the poems while contemporary poets are ready to work in the same vein.
Love Is Poetry: Rhyming Poems About Love Life by Danil Rudoy is a love poems collection spiced up with some philosophical contemplations about the nature of life and the sense it (sometimes) makes to us. The poet is not afraid to run the whole gamut of romantic love, from purely platonic to unequivocally sexual, and from worshiping the beloved to pointing out her numerous foibles and peccadillos. Love Is Poetry is for people who still remember that rhyme and rhythm are the two ultimate factors that make a rough draft into a true poem.
