"The Good Morrow" is an aubade—a morning love poem—written in the 1590s by the English poet John Donne. The speaker characterizes love as a powerful feeling, similar to a religious revelation. Second, because the joys and discoveries of religious commitment can be mirrored in sexual love. Finally, he suggests that while they are distinct emotions, love makes us want everything good for our loved ones. Love is described as a "holy ghost", which is an idea popular at the time but not widely accepted now. Donne uses this term to emphasize the spiritual nature of love, comparing it to God who is often described as a "spirit". He also compares love to religion because both religions and relationships offer people something special that they cannot get anywhere else in life. In Christianity, religion offers people hope while love gives people peace. Last, but not least, Donne says that love makes us want everything good for our loved ones. This idea shows that love has many positive effects on our lives and it is something we should all try to achieve for those we love. In conclusion, love is described as a holy ghost, similar to God. It is a feeling that makes us want everything good for our loved ones.
