What is your favorite love quote/poem?

I Remember You As You Were byPablo Neruda:

I remember you as you were in the last Autumn. You were the grey beret and the still heart. In your eyes the flames of the twilight fought on. And the leaves fell in the water of your soul. Clasping my arms like a climbing plant the leaves garnered your voice, that was slow and at peace. Bonfire of awe in which my thirst was burning. Sweet blue hyacinth twisted over my soul. I feel your eyes traveling, and the autumn is far off: grey beret, voice of a bird, heart like a house towards which my deep longings migrated and my kesses fell, happy as embers.Sky from a ship. Feild from the hills: Your membor is made of light, of smoke, of a still pond! Beyond your eyes, farther on, the envenings were blazing. Dry autumn leaves revolved in your soul.

Do you prefer chocolates or roses?

both!

I loved making the Valentine mail boxes out of shoe boxes as a child. I loved getting and recieving little love notes!

My favorite romantic movie? Moulin Rogue (I love Ewan in this movie - his eyes are so twinkly)

My favorite love quote/poem?
I'm going to change this to a song (if that is ok), because i love the lyrics:
Crush, by the Dave Matthews Bandhere is an excerpt of the song:"Crush meCome on, oh yeah It's crazy I'm thinking Just knowing that the world is roundI'm Here I'm dancing on the ground Am I right side up or upside downIs this real or am I dreaming Lovely lady I will treat you sweetly Adore you I mean you crush me, oh It's times like these When my faith I feel And I know how I love you"it sounds much better and romantic when he is signing it, but I think you get the idea

Do you prefer chocolates or roses?
I love roses - they last longer! my fave flower is a gerbera daisy though!
