Iambic Pentameter


Isn't it interesting how the rhythm and cadence of Elizabeth Barrett Browning's "How Do I Love Thee?  Let Me Count the Ways" and Shakespeare's "Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day?" are so similar?
Masters of the iambic pentameter.
Anyway, tomorrow is Valentine's Day. Some love it, some hate it.  If you belong to the latter, forget those sonnets, and rock along with The J Geils Band :
(Love stinks)
Love stinks yeah yeah
(Love stinks)
Love stinks yeah yeah
