I'd go for Pablo Neruda. "Love is so short and forgetting is so long."- from Tonight I Can Write the Saddest Lines

Read this http://www.princeton.edu/~batke/logr/log_101.html ... It's by Walt Whitman. (before people freak out, it's a link to "Out of the Cradle, Endlessly Rocking", not a virus or something)
I personally think Shakespeare's poetry sucked. His plays were incredible, masterpieces, etc., but his actual poems? I'd like to see one person who actually reads his sonnets and liked them.

Spenser's "Epithilamion" is the best love poem. Not only of all time, but also about time.

DEFINITELY NOT that homosexual pedophile Shakespeare, I would have to say Robert Frost.
