Edmund Waller was born in March 1606 into an affluent English family. His fatherwas a lawyer and prudent investor. Known for his wit and management skill,Edmund entered Parliament, and in time, became a famous MP in the House ofCommons, although his political life had many difficult periods.


Go, Lovely Rose (1645) is one of the most famous and quoted short verses in all ofEnglish literature. It is a lyric poem with four stanzas of five lines each. The rose isthe unifliing image, and symbolizes youth, the brevity of beauty, and yearning forcompanionship. The conversation between the speaker and the rose - a metaphorfor a beautiful woman - gets more intense with each stanza, as the speaker's appealbecomes more urgent.


The concept of a formal courtship period between two people, or the idea ofchivalry is not well-imagined today as it was in Waller's 17th century England. Still,the human need to be wanted and loved has not changed since time began, eventhough it is demonstrated in different ways. It is poetry such as Go, Lovely Rose thatstays our mind - if even for a few fleeting moments - on innocence, purity, and thebeauty that exists when two souls are truly connected.
