This photo was taken during the wedding of my boyfriend’s cousin (you can check them out here). Each table in the reception had a theme, or a particular author/writer and on each seat, they provided copies of that particular writer’s work. I was seated with my boyfriend on Pablo Neruda’s table and this was the literary piece in front of me. Pablo Neruda’s Sonnet XVII. Beautiful string of words, don’t you think? :-) 

I love you because I know no other way

I haven’t really been into prose or poetry. I picked up a book filled with poetry one time at my school’s library because I was bored and though it was beautiful, I wasn’t quite interested. Pablo Neruda is not a foreign name to me although I am not quite familiar with his works, so I will probably spend more time in the near future reading them. :-)
