Description Well, definitely not my best work. I wanted to try a few new things like the writing style and the ornamentations. I really like the text style, but it needs some work.

A quote from Shakespeare that would be good for Valentine's Day, I think. There's more to it, but I like how this sounds by itself (I love me some rhymes):

Doubt thou the stars are fire;
Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar;
But never doubt I love you.

Take THAT thou fellow who sayeth that Shakespeare is inapplicable to the modern era! I doth prove thee wrong!

...Dammit, I hate spring; so much love going around and none for me yet.

Please look at the rest of my calligraphy because I think it is much better than this.

AHHHH! No! NO!!!
“Doubt thou the stars are fire;
Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar;
But never doubt I love.”
No "you". never a "you". It hits harder when it doesn't rhyme.

Shalt thee not try to tell me that Shakespeare is more interesting now than he shall ever be.

Good work.
Spacing is a bit irregular though.
