Sappho wrote so lovely love poems. ,With rosy Cheeks and glancing Eyes and Voices sweet as Honey' is one of the lines I found in her book.
Sappho (/ˈsæfoʊ/; Greek: Σαπφώ Sapphō was an Archaic Greek poet from the island of Lesbos.
Every year, sweet peas return to our studio garden — descendants of my grandmother's flowers. Their climbing tendrils prompt my cousin Robbert to recite Keats' tender words:
“Here are sweet peas, on tiptoe for a flight;
With wings of gentle flush o’er delicate white,
And taper fingers catching at all things,
To bind them all about with tiny rings.”
— John Keats, “I Stood Tip-Toe Upon a Little Hill” (1817)
