I have chosen the poem “I do not love thee” by Caroline Elizabeth Sarah Norton.
This poems seems to be talking about someone the author knows and likes. The author, Ms. Norton seems to be saying that while she doesn’t feel true love for the subject of the poem, she enjoys their company. She even admires the person and misses them while they are gone.
For the most part, I didn't find most of the poem hard to understand. However, at the very end of the poem it says “vet. Alas” and I’m not sure what this means. A few words were slightly difficult but within the context of the rest of the sentence, you can figure out what it is. But most of it is easy to understand. Some phrases are a little awkward, possibly because vocabulary and pronunciations
