Love Poems
Welcome to Love Poetry, an exciting new collection of love poems by contemporary English writers. The collection interweaves love poems of all types - the comic and the tragic, the romantic and the erotic, the sentimental and the sensual. With such a heady poetic mix, not all poems will be to all tastes. I hope you enjoy at least a few of the poems in the collection and return often to be further enchanted, or perhaps revolted, as new poems are published.
Why More Love Poetry?
The Love Poetry collection is the work of contemporary English poet Paul Curtis. Paul is a established and respected poet of 20 years standing, whose poems have been widely published in such august literary organs as Earth Love, Decanto, Romance Adventure and Green Queen. Paul has also contributed a significant body of funny poetry to our sister site, Peculiar Poetry, which has been received with popular acclaim. This collection of love poetry is a demonstrations of Paul's versatility, as he shows himself equally adept at writing of comic, romantic and erotic love poems. The site offers over 250 original and unusual love poems, with new poems added every few months.
Romantic & Erotic Love Poems
Paul's collection of romantic poems cuts a broad swathe through the emotional landscape, from the tender innocence of poems about young love, through poems about the experience of love within a committed and lasting relationship, to poems about the utter devastation and despair caused by the breakup of a marriage or the death of a partner. Beyond these romantic love poems lie sensual, erotic and sex poems which offer a frank and often sexually explicit portrayal of love and lust.
Funny Love Poems
As a little light relief from the unremitting diet of romantic poems, we've included a selection of funny love poems by Paul Curtis and Patrick Winstanley. The funny love poetry includes humorous and funny love poems, funny wedding poems, funny poems about sex and funny valentines poems, which includes short and sweet, funny, twisted and vengeful valentine's day verse.
Who Should Read the Poems?
Or perhaps that ought to be Who shouldn't read the poems? Unwilling as I am to be prescriptive about the intended audience, the poems are written for adults and are wholly unsuitable for pre-teenage children. Teenagers and adults should be warned that some of the poems in the erotic poetry section contain graphic sexual imagery - a statement which, like a magnet, will probably attract as many people as it repels!
Does Size Matter?
When it comes to poetry websites, size is certainly an issue. At Love Poetry, we're striving to create a collection that's small, yet perfectly formed. If you prefer the big, brash, pile-em-high and sell-em-cheap approach to love poems, there are a plethora of other websites from which to choose…
