From an email I got.
THESE ARE ENTRIES TO A WASHINGTON POST COMPETITION ASKING FOR A TWO-LINE RHYME WITH THE MOST ROMANTIC FIRST LINE, BUT THE LEAST ROMANTIC secondo LINE:
My darling, my lover, my beautiful wife:
Marrying te screwed up my life.
I see your face when I am dreaming.
That's why I always wake up screaming.
Kind, intelligent, loving and hot;
This describes everything te are not.
Amore may be beautiful, Amore may be bliss,
But I only slept with te 'cause I was pissed.
I thought that I could Amore no other --
That is until I met your brother.
rose are red, violets are blue, sugar is sweet, and so are you.
But the rose are wilting, the violets are dead, the sugar bowl's empty, and so is your head.
I want to feel your sweet embrace;
But don't take that paper bag off your face.
I Amore your smile, your face, and your eyes –
Damn, I'm good at telling lies!
My love, te take my breath away.
What have te stepped in to smell this way?
My feelings for te no words can tell,
Except for maybe 'Go to hell.'
What inspired this amorous rhyme?
Two parts vodka, one part lime.

Not the water that travels in a flow
Not the earth that sits below
Not the wind that blows through his hair
Not the fuoco that shines in his stare
None of the four old elements will do
Let's add a fifth, for me and you
One for the smile that sits on our faces
One that makes our hearts take off at paces
That slams our hearts against our ribs
That takes no offence to the jokes and the fibs
Something that reflects even better than colori light
Something that makes te feel in flight
A feel that makes te thirst for more
A feel like water at beaches shore
A thing that makes te do hand-in-hand
A special thing te wouldn't trade for all the land
A truth and care te see in his eyes
A truth and care clearer than the clearest skies
A fuoco bright to burn forever
A fuoco te keep going together
One that makes te smile and makes your cuore throb
One that's really for us, just us
Let's call it Love...

Then, all of a sudden I saw a light, a bright light.
As I followed it, I noticed that with each step, all the sadness, sorrow and all of that was vanishing.
Then, I found myself being invaded, invaded da joy, happiness and love.
The light became brighter and brighter, and i heard a voice, a sweet gentle voice, asking me to embrace the light, to follow it, so I did.
The light became so intense that I had to close my eyes, but when I opened them I saw it clearly, I saw the Angel who had just saved me.
Nessie, that Angel was you!^^
Thanks for all the happiness te brought to my life^^ te mean a lot to me, I Amore you! <33
