"Love Among the Ruins" by Robert Browning (read by Tom O'Bedlam)

[@kenstork]

One of my favourite poems since my teen years. Its message of love amidst a world of turmoil is still true in these latter days of my life.

I love the opening lines: Where the quiet coloured end of evening smiles.. miles and miles...
D.H. Lawrence quotes them in Women in Love

Thanks for pointing out the mistype, I fixed it.
I added a reference to a longer analysis of the poem to the notes.
