Poems for Honeymooners - Love poems for married people

W B Yeats

Sinopse

Honeymoons are a relatively modern concept in the western world, dating from the 19th Century and have since become a multi-billion dollar industry turning the beginning of wedded bliss into a smorgsboard of ‘must have this’ and ‘must do that’.   
 
However, celebrating a marriage is something we perhaps all feel should be a more intimate occasion.  After all this part of the journey is possibly unique as well as universal and timeless.  Sex, possibly for the first time, is now an expression of the wedded state, cementing and reframing the relationship as a new couple.   
 
Within the lines of this volume are perfect poems for those on such a journey, whether it a romantic holiday setting or relaxed at home as our classic poets revel in the sensual, the sexy and above all the love for that very special chosen person in our lives.   Our verse includes those from Shakespeare, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Rossetti, W B Yeats, Khalil Gibran, Ella Wheeler Wilcox and many more.
