Twelve specially selected favourite love poems, read by acclaimed actors Bill Wallis and Jenny Agutter. This literary bouquet of blooms includes Andrew Marvell's classic To His Coy Mistress, a beautiful extract from The Song of Solomon, Christina Rossetti's joyful A Birthday, and Christopher Marlowe's The Passionate Shepherd to His Love. As well, there are Edward Fitzgerald's meditations from The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, Edward Lear's comic verse The Owl and The Pussycat, Elizabeth Barrett Browning's If Thou Must Love Me, John Donne's The Sunne Rising and lines from John Milton's Paradise Lost. Completing the dozen are Robert Burns' My Love is Like A Red, Red Rose, Robert Herrick's Delight in Disorder and Shakespeare's Shall I Compare Thee to a Summer's Day.
