"Love Among the Ruins" by Robert Browning (poetry reading)

[abrandnewman]

love is best.

@abrandnewman but not the beatles' 'all we need is love' love.

I love the opening lines: Where the quiet coloured end of evening smiles.. miles and miles...

D.H. Lawrence quotes them in Women in Love

Is it Browning or Browing? The title has an "n", the keyword does not.

I've always had a particular fondness for Browning's Romanticism.

Does this poem follow a particular form?

Thanks for pointing out the mistype, I fixed it.

I added a reference to a longer analysis of the poem to the notes.

No problem (check the title, too). Yours has to be one of my favorite subscriptions on Youtube :)

Any chance for Childe Roland, or would that be too long?

beautiful.
