Poems for Newlyweds

di Christopher Marlowe (Autore)

The Copyright Group, 2022

The meeting, the courtship, the wedding and the honeymoon have all now been completed. Having got this far the real journey lays before every married couple seeking the love, stability, support and joys of a long-term relationship. The state of the newly-weds is now at hand. The meeting of minds and the living together can become a source of friction or ignition to a deeper understanding. Physically the very first blush of lust and desire is replaced by an understanding that life and our own biological and emotional clocks, for some, may now require that children be brought into the mix and families raised. Yes, that interlude when the bliss of being a newly-wed – announced and seen as such to a wider society – really doesn’t last that long. Time to savour the days and nights of love’s sweet wonder. Our classic poets, of course, have much to say and advise on. With the storied likes of Christopher Marlowe, Khalil Gibran, Charlotte Bronte, Elizabeth Barrett Browning and even George Orwell then the listener is in wise and knowing hands. 01 - Poems for Newly-Weds - An Introduction 02 - On Marriage by Khalil Gibran 03 - I Am Not Yours by Sara Teasdale 04 - Love is Not All (Sonnet XXX) by Edna St Vincent Millay 05 - A Bridal Toast by James Madison Bell 06 - Wedding Song by Jehudah Halevi 07 - Epithalamion by James Elroy Flecker 08 - Epithalamion by Gerard Manley Hopkins 09 - Wedding Day by Edith Nesbit 10 - Rose of All the World by D H Lawrence 11 - Wedded by Isaac Rosenberg 12 - He Wishes For the Cloths of Heaven by W B Yeats 13 - A Bridal Song by John Ford 14 - To My Dear and Loving Husband by Anne Bradstreet 15 - An Extract of the Wife's Will by Charlotte Bronte 16 - Sonnet to My Wife by Thomas Hood 17 - To a Husband by Anne Kingsmill Finch 18 - On Love by Khalil Gibran 19 - Two Lovers by George Eliot 20 - Love's Unity by Alfred Austin 21 - Spiritual Love by Alfred Austin 22 - The Definition of Love by Andrew Marvell 23 - Sonnet 116 - Let Me Not to the Marriage of True Minds by William Shakespeare 24 - To The Beloved by Alice Meynell 25 - Beloved by Hafiz 26 - Vice Vearsa by Ambrose Bierce 27 - Romance by George Orwell 28 - Mutual Forebearance.
