The Rubáiyát of a Bachelor

"The Rubáiyát of a Bachelor" by Helen Rowland is a funny collection of poems from the early 1900s. It's all about love, dating, and what it's like to be a bachelor. The book makes fun of what society expects when it comes to marriage and relationships. The poems show a man who loves being single and all the good things that come with it, but he also knows that love can be tricky. Using smart rhymes and fun pictures, the narrator thinks about how love doesn't always last, how marriage can feel like being tied down, and how much fun it is to flirt without having to commit. These poems promote being free, having fun with friends, and not taking love too seriously, telling people to enjoy life and love without getting trapped.
