Sonnet XCIV
Sound the alarm, peace and quiet alludes, The matrix doth roar my mind overblown, Composer of dreams, writing such etudes, O’er melodic seas mine ideas hath flown. Commiseration, so dance the duet, Minds overflowing with commanding verse, Vision blurred by such knowing’s undue fret, Losing sight of all purpose thee traverse. As jagged seas’ waves […]
Sonnet XCIII
Friendship tis as a crystal fragile glass, There in blue shadows of melancholy, And cheerful hues of golden sun en masse’ In each other’s arms, banter, or folly. For table tis set, thou stand at my side, Glimmering in the light prepared for drink, Lifting up in toast of joy undenied, And with me in […]
Sonnet XCII
Give me thy hand, and hold me closer still; For I am at the precipice, and pray, That thine heart across the ocean fulfill, All dreams thou hath conjured both night and day. O, blame me not for the dulling of pain, The marred soul doth bear life’s heavy burdens, Where teardrops lose count in […]
Sonnet XCI
Love doth lift us up out of the darkness; As realms of obscurity seek their own Love’s open harmony heals apartness, Till roots do run deep and leaved-trees are grown. Love tis the light in the shadowy night; Moving across the azure sky in waves, Commanding the stars to proudly unite, Turning darkness to crystal […]
Sonnet XC
O let me ponder, what I myself am; For mine reflection tis regal and stead, That truth surpass palace of Buckingham; So kingdoms rise and nobly bow the head. In rev’rence, I with gratitude look on; And in this vision, I see renewed life, Where timeless honesty greets the new dawn, Moving beyond comfort, think […]
Sonnet LXXXIX
Where art thou, Cupid, let me conjur thee? With thine bow end the world of turmoil’s pain; For love’s language hath deeply captured me, Till the hands of fate surround thee again. How do you speak love universally? Return, arrowed cherub, and set thine aim; Was thine fate to rise up from this valley? Or […]
Sonnet LXXVIII
The lone Magnolia blooms on its own, Iv’ry arms lift up in vict’ry rounded Crowned jewel of the South delicately grown; Such precious view, this bud, hearts impounded. Beauteous thine glow in textured sunshine, Like a candle lit day and night skyward Praying for the people and land combine, As a sail soars so doth […]
Sonnet LXXXVII
Gather the spirit of youth in thine palm, And sprinkle it across heav’n in due time Tickled fancy doth lend thine ear to psalm; Where lips confess and seek again to rhyme. Poets laugh, leap, and trim gold-paged verse; When proud-eyed beauty crosses searching mind, Like the cool grape freshly vined doth coerce, Making robust […]
Sonnet LXXXVI
How like springtime’s love doth thine aura live, Begging the light of the Sun to reveal The fading winter that darkness forgive, And shimmering beauty waking doth heal, For the Sorcerer’s spell hath been lifted, And grace prevail and clarity abound Nature’s cleansing rain hath bright sky gifted; As eyes do cherish as they look […]
Sonnet LXXXV
Loves great harmony plays on in our souls, So when the beauty of youth abandons, And hearts, like old clothes, art filled with holes, When life broken, begs thee call for stand-ins. Such melody soothes an aching world feared; As the city’s harsh whisper threaten thee, And life’s graceful rhythm hath disappeared, To a place […]
