Love 116, Adam Sprung

This poem seems to be talking about the consistency with love. It can change, move and be altered at any point in time, but love is a steadfast thing. He says that it is not a fool of time, because it last forever. The poem, like most of Shakespeare's sonnet's are 3 quatrains with a couplet at the end. I like this poem because it plays with the idea that once you have loved, you will always love. I think its a funny idea. People say that they fall in and out of love, but i believe that once you have loved someone, you will always have some feeling for them. It may not have the lust it used to, but there is still an emotional connection. I think even though the couplet is suppose to sum up the poem, his two lines before that is what does it the best. "Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom.".
