In the poem "Let Me Count The Ways," Elizabeth Barrett Browning celebrates the many ways in which she loves her husband, Robert. She begins by describing the physical aspects of her love, such as his "smooth white hand" and "dear eyes." But she also goes on to describe the more intangible qualities of her love, such as his "sweet voice" and "noble nature."

The result is a poem that is both passionate and tender, and that captures the essence of true love. Browning's use of vivid imagery and sensory language creates a portrait of a love that is both sensual and spiritual.

Here is an excerpt from the poem:

Let me count the ways I love you:

I love you for your voice, your smile, your touch,

For your sweet face, your noble nature,

For your kind heart, your generous soul.

I love you for your mind, your wit, your charm,

For your strength, your courage, your determination.

I love you for your love of life, your love of me,

For your unwavering faith in me.

I love you for all that you are,

And for all that you will be.
