William Shakespeare Sonnet 18

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this and this gives life to thee.

"Love" – Tag

© All Rights Reserved
(Click on image to enlarge)
This week’s Tag Along challenge #24 was "Pink Love."

I'm not a big fan of pink, but I recently found these Art Deco flowers, so this was the perfect place to use them.

I created this using GIMP 2.8.10.

The images are from a DuckDuckGo search.

The background words are from Shakespeare's Sonnet LXXIII.

The fonts are

Gentium Basic Bold
