Love Poems Essay

May 12, 2010

The most effective love poem is Baca’s lyric poem because it’s about unconditional love.  I think that type of love is the most memorable.  It has imagery that shows how comforting love can be.  It also doesn’t really have a strict form because everything is coming from the heart.

An example of the poem showing love as comforting is in lines 3-6, when he compares love to a warm coat and thick socks in the cold.  Another example is when he compares his love to a scarf around your face during the winter.  In lines 25-30 he talks about if everyone in the world didn’t care about this person, he would still love them.  I also think that the poem being a lyric poem shows that love also isn’t strict.  I think this love is more important and thats why I chose it as my favorite.

In conclusion, this poem talks about a more effective type of love.  The imagery it has shows that unconditional love is comforting.  Like when Baca talks about how his love will always be there no matter what.  I like that the poem format wasn’t strict, while the others were, because it gives more of a “from the heart” feeling.  This is why this poem is more memorable and my favorite.
