Poetry existed even before the invention of writing, as traveling tale tellers commonly used rhymes to recount the deeds of heroes or the voyages of mighty adventurers. Even in this age devoted to technology, we still call on the rhyming words, mostly to express our deepest feelings, and thanks to easy access on the Web, poems about love are more popular than ever. Poetry touches our heart in a unique way; ''Journeys end in lovers meeting'' says one of Shakespeare love poems, and it rings truer than ever, reflecting both love found and love sought for. But there's much more to be found on the Internet, beside love poems by famous poets; short love poems by amateurs with a gift with words... fabulous love poems by contemporary writers. And for those of us feeling inspired, lots of websites explain how to write love poems. We can all have a try... no matter the outcome, the pleasure of rhyming remains. Writing poems on love may be the easiest form of poetry because the feeling is universal and has so many facets... our love for friends, family, nature... the subject is endless. A strained relationship will trigger love hate poems, while a painful breakup will provide the inspiration for poems about lost love. Love is an intricate part of our life, and poetry the best way still to express it in all its forms.

..I learn how to love.
In your beauty, how to make poems.
You dance inside my chest,
where no one sees you,
but sometimes I do,
and that sight becomes this art.
