Directions: Read the poem below and answer the questions that follow.
Let me not to the marriage of true minds
Admit impediments. Love is not love
Which alters when it alteration finds,
Or bends with the remover to remove.
O no! it is an ever-fixed mark
That looks on tempests and is never shaken;
It is the star to every wand'ring bark,
Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.
Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come;
Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks,
But bears it out even to the edge of doom.
If this be error and upon me prov'd,
I never writ, nor no man ever lov'd.

_________________________20. Rain gently falls whenever we say goodnight

Falling like when you're out of sight
Rain follows me even in my bed
And rain is the tears that I shed
There'll be no sunshine in my life
Until you say you're mine, oh mine
There'll be no summer, spring or fall
Each day is like winter time
But I can never say I care
I know it won't be smart
Somebody owns your heart
It can never be mine

_________________________21. Loving a person that doesn’t love you

Would you still be willing to continue?
If no feeling is involved,
Why prolong? Why not resolve?
You are you, while he’s too good to be true.

one poem in different kinds of lines.
Looking back the days we spent together
How am I supposed to forget them?
No one and nothing can ever tell me to
Forgetting you is the least that I shall do
Please tell me how and tell me now
For I cannot find the words to say that I’ll be fine
A thousand daggers seems like to me
The day to day that somewhat runs within me.
I wish to God to heal the pain, as my life to be going
For nothing I cannot do, you are gone and that is true
On a peaceful pond
Jumps a frog and makes a noise
Still nothing but peace.
King Fernando of Berbania had three sons, Pedro, Diego and
Juan of whom the last was the favorite.
He so loved Juan that when one night he dreamed that his two
children conspired against their youngest brother,
the king became so frightened that he fell sick with a malady,
which non of the physicians of the kingdom were able to cure.
Persons were not lacking, however, who would advise him that
bird Adarna was the one living being in the world which could
restore to him his lost health and tranquility. Acting on this
advice, he sent out his oldest son Pedro to look for this coveted
animal. After days of wandering through the dense forests ad
extensive thickets, he came to a tree of diamond, at the foot of
which he fell down tired and thirsty. He never suspected that it
was this tree the very one in which the famous bird was
accustomed to pass the night; and when the night was setting
and the Adarna flung into the air the first of its seven songs, his
melody was so softly sweet that Pedro was lulled into a
profound sleep. After emitting its seventh melody for the night,
the bird defecated on the sleeping prince who was thereby
converted into a stone.
