omnia vincit amor...

According to Virgil "love conquers all" this a propos of today being World Poetry Day.

And my favourite (today at least) lines of English poetry?"

My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

National Poetry Day

I couldn't let today go past without a mention of my favourite poem, Ozymandias by Shelley.
The final lines are:

"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
