💌 You've got mail! Oh, sorry, not you 😅 It is addressed to a different person. Read this letter in verse 👇 and guess the sender and the addressee. Hint: both of them are fictional characters. Forgive this address, from a once-proud, cold man, Who dismissed lively Hertfordshire with a mere scan. Yet from that first meeting, a most stubborn fight, My world was upended, a bewildering sight. It was love at first sight, though I called it disdain, A feeling so potent it muddled my brain. Now I am head over heels, utterly smitten, My carefully built walls all thoroughly beaten. You, madam, with wit that could sharpen a blade, Have swept me completely and forever off my feet. I am ready to fall for someone unafraid, Whose spirit makes my own worn heart skip a beat. Let them call us lovebirds, a match made in heaven, If you’ll have this reformed man you’ve so boldly forgiven. No longer I’ll carry a torch in silent despair, But shout my devotion to the open air. I’ll whisper sweet nothings of Pemberley’s great views, If you grant me the honour to stand in your shoes. My estate is worth nothing if you are not there, I will love you to the moon and back, with my deepest care. Most ardently, always. Yours, if you'll have me. Share your ideas in the comments ❤️ 📌NB: Как объясните использование will после if - 'If you'll have this reformed man' и 'If you'll have me'? Ведь в условных предложениях нельзя использовать будущее? 🤔 Или...? А это и не будущее вовсе. А вежливая просьба, где will означает are willing to. Поэтому и можно 😁 #zippy_english #poetry #puzzles #stvalentine
