I remember…
… speaking in front of a large group and glancing at you in the audience to see the admiring way you were looking at me. I would give most anything to be seen in your eyes like that again.

Elizabeth Barrett to Robert Browning, April 29, 1846
if dreaming of me
should be good for making you love me,
let me be dreamt of…
go on to dream of me:
and love me, my beloved…
because the love returns to you,
all of it …
waves to the sea….
