AHad we but world enough, and time,

This coyness, lady, were no crime.

We would sit down, and think which way

To walk, and pass our long love's day

BBusy old fool, unruly sun,

Why dost thou thus

Through windows and through curtains call on us?

Must to thy motions lovers' seasons run?

CDeath, be not proud, though some have called thee

Mighty and dreadful, for thou art not so;

For those whom thou think'st thou dost overthrow

Die not, poor Death, nor yet canst thou kill me.

Explanation:

The term metaphysical poets were minted by the critic Samuel Johnson to represent a loose group of 17th-century English poets whose work was described by the creative use of arrogance and by a larger importance on the spoken rather than the lyrical essence of their verse. Colloquial language is used in everyday writing situations and creates a conversational tone. Everyday spoken language gives your writing a casual, comfortable effect.
