A Thing of Beauty Is a Joy Forever Quiz

Answer:

Here is how the poem is supposed to be read:

To My Valentine,

Roses are red, violets are blue,
Diamonds are forever and my love for you is true.
Every time I think of you my heart skips a beat.
I get butterflies in my stomach every time we meet.
Your blue eyes glisten like a pair of sapphire gems.
I can see the whole universe just looking at them.
Your golden hair glows like the morning sun.
Won't you please let me be your champion?
We can sit on the beach, under the moonlight.
I guarantee that it will be a wonderful night.

With Love, Your Secret Admirer

LEVANTINE = VALENTINE
Being someone's valentine is often a sign of love. The word is derived from the Latin word valens which means "to be strong, vigorous, or healthy". The word's association with love comes from St. Valentine, who allegedly wed Roman soldiers against the wishes of Emperor Claudius II.

SORES = ROSES
Roses are flowers that often instill feelings of love and joy. However, people need to be careful when handling them as roses have sharp thorns on their stems that could potentially leave sores on your hands.

MAID NODS = DIAMONDS
Diamonds are gemstones made from the element carbon. They are formed deep within the Earth's crust and are often used to make jewelry such as rings and necklaces, which people often associate with beauty.

EARTH = HEART
The heart is often associated with feelings of love. This is because Ancient civilizations such as Egypt and Greece assumed that the heart was the source of human emotion. In modern times, we now know that the brain is the organ responsible for emotions.

ELF TRIBUTES = BUTTERFLIES
Butterflies are often considered to be beautiful insects as they often have unique color patterns on their wings. When someone is nervous, often when attempting to court a date, they will often get "butterflies" in their stomach.

PEAR SHIP = SAPPHIRE
Sapphires are gemstones formed from the mineral corundum (crystallized aluminum oxide). Sapphires mostly come in blue, but can be found in other colors as well. Like diamonds, sapphires are often used in creating jewelry.

VINE USER = UNIVERSE
Observing the universe with a telescope will often reveal some potentially beautiful scenery such as colorful planets, stars and nebulae.

DONGLE = GOLDEN
Golden hair (blond hair) contains low levels of a substance called melanin, which determines a person hair, eye and skin color. Of course, gold itself is a precious metallic element that is also used in making jewelry.

CHINA MOP = CHAMPION
Becoming a champion would definitely instill a sense of joy in someone, whether it be the champion of a sport or in this case being somebody's personal champion.

LINGO MOTH = MOONLIGHT
Activities such as dining or walking under the moonlight, or simply sitting and observing the moon is often seen as a romantic activity and many times complements a successful date night.

UNDERFLOW = WONDERFUL
The word wonderful is an adjective that can evoke feelings of love and joy.

MARRIED = ADMIRER
Being a secret admirer might be a way for someone who is nervous about romance to test the waters of a potential relationship. However, it is important that people try to learn more about the people they are admiring to avoid awkward situations such as attempting to court someone who is already married.
