A birthday of hers!

Being famous for Sonnets, she afterwards wrote Amy's Cruelty and Musical Instrument and Forced Recruit - testifying that she was the kind to prove those sonnets and dedication of love true even without any need to having written them.

To quote another poem of hers 'only love me half a season, like a man can' she is the kind that is worthy to be loved by a man one full season.

6th March 2011 Paulo Coelho posted two sonnets to honour her birthday on his facebook. So thanks to him, I know about her 10 years already.
