With Love

With Love is a poem I wrote during the planning of my marriage. It was so exciting, very amazing, and filled with love.


   There are seven stanzas having four lines each. The stanzas are each their own chapter (one stanza per chapter). There is a syllable count and emphasis on the odd stanzas - each odd stanza has four rhyming-pairs of single syllable words starting each line followed by seven syllables and their rhyme is AABB; the even stanzas each have eight syllables per line, also rhyming AABB. This poem is intended to be read in a faster, bouncier and uplifting fashion.


   The structure of this poem provides for seven chapter breaks. Each stanza has had its lines split-apart in order to preserve the intent (the pacing) of each line, and thus each line may be given its own page; there may be instances, however, where managing the evolution of the poem in your mind, some lines have been split into multiple pages, or, multiple lines of a stanza remain on the same page (making it so a page is not necessarily equal to the count of lines of a stanza).
