Love At First Sight

     “Where both deliberate, the love is light; whoever loved that loved not at first sight.” Thus writes Christopher Marlowe, a literary genius who might have equaled Shakespeare if he had lived longer. But tragically he led a dissipated life and came to a violent end at an early age.

     The love at first sight poems of passionup.com include not only the lines quoted above, but Marlowe’s complete poem. In addition, there is another card with a poem by Philip Sidney, another Elizabethan poet who died young, fighting nobly for his country.

     Love at first sight is not a myth. It really happens, and when it happens, it often leads to the altar and lifelong ecstasy.  It is ardent love that does not deliberate, but is determined to overcome all obstacles.

   Passionup.com rises to the occasion and produces e-cards that are worthy of such noble, fervent love.
