True Love Romantic Love
468 words
"A Kiss That Embodies Love" Gustav Klimt's "The
Kiss" has been close to my heart for the past
seven years. To me this artwork represents an
embodiment of true love because the image
represents what I consider to be traditional
romantic love. The male figure appears protective
of the woman, yet he also seems nurturing. The
female figure has the soft femininity of a
traditional woman, yet she appears to be an equal
contributor to the relationship as well as to the
painting; neither the man nor the...

Amp Quot Iambic Pentameter
1,588 words
In order for a poem to be classified as a sonnet,
it must meet certain structural requirements, and
Sonnet 138, & quot; When my love swears that
she is made of truth, & quot; is a perfect
example. Shakespeare employs the traditional rhyme
scheme of the English sonnet, the poem is made up
of three quatrains and a rhyming couplet, and
iambic pentameter is the predominant meter.
However, it would be an error to approach this
poem as a traditional Shakespearean love sonnet.
It is a 'love' po...
