Afrikitty presents: "An Anthem to Love", with Honour to the Classic Poets.

I made this video for my friends on a smaller website for Valentine's Day, 2014. This is a revamped re-upload of this video.

This entire video is an anthem to love. It took me a very long time to plan, to find the media and images, and to put together in such a way that it will be a joy to whomever watches it.

I have, since, made some small changes to this video in order to make it more personal in nature. I removed the mention of the name of website, as I have since been banned from there. Nonetheless, this video is to be enjoyed by anybody who loves poetry written by the classic poets.

1. Lord George G. Byron.
