Sonnet LIII
Help me understand this bold injustice, That all my senses ruminate the cost When affections gift failed to trust us, And in that doubt all sacred moments lost. Mislaid intentions defeat alchemy, Where action and reaction roll the dice Detained on charges of blasphemy, In cathedrals of heart, that paid the price. Every jewel in […]
Sonnet LII
In timeworn twilight days can love survive; With shades of time fading upon thine gaze When seasons fickle prank to connive , Eroding mine verve through life’s waterways. Where sirens once sang of romantic youth; Such beauties engulfed mine ship with splendor, And shoal watered wrinkles confounded truth Robbing me of Spring’s time-treasured ardor. Now the […]
Sonnet LI
Is it thy will to mold a soul broken? Mine own heavy heart knows thine weariness, For thou can’t accept a kind one’s token While sorrows bathe mine eyes in teariness. Such desire doth find me without slumber, Where jealousy leads to failed returns That fade to black that shadows encumber To expose jaded lies […]
Sonnet L
Surely I am lost in Neptune’s sweet dream; Where sprays of mist kiss the white sandy shore, And in seconds our souls fuse as tides teem, So our love doth return as the waves before. From rushing minds bound in one devotion, Lost in that place where vision doth transfix, And in rare silence subdue […]
Sonnet XLIX
If there be anything I would thee ask, That thou see’st me as thy only true love. To feel thine hand in mine through every task, Hearts melding into one, blessed from above; For birds sing and we in their presence bask. Ne’er before hath such a wonder been seen; Where one half finds the […]
Sonnet XLVIII
It is said, eyes be windows to the soul, Where both pleasure and agony doth speak And of hours dancing upon grassy knoll Stretching upward ascending mountain peak. Climbing mysterious heights incognito, While peering over masked intricacies. Your vassal of love, death n’er can veto, Accepting mine idiosyncrasies. In the black of night and […]
Sonnet XLVII
It was a time of innocence and joy, Precious moments of youth escape me now; When a child’s heart t’was so carefree and coy, For happy were days that childhood knew how. Where the affairs of the age smiled kindly, And night dreams came in clouds of brilliant white Op’ning to new worlds accepted blindly, […]
Sonnet XLVI
Come tarry to the well, and mend thee there, Renew’d perpetual spirit of love Precious blest art thou, my sweet heart so fair; Be thou my Sun in bluest skies above. Lasting harmony falls daily to mind From nebulous mists surrounding yon mount, High o’er the rains and unto ocean bind For all that comes […]
Sonnet XLV
Mine only love, how I so long for thee; That every facet of my being quakes. Heav’ns light shines upon thee eternally, As lifegiving balm gently soothes heartaches. Immeasurable purity and charm, Thine lustrous allure exudes life’s wonder, In a land where fantasy thee disarm, And inspirited revelry ponder. To think with mine heart tis […]
Sonnet XLIV
O, how vast open skies of summer gleam Pure azure deep the cosmos open wide, And in majestic endlessness doth seem Such clarity as stars in heav’n hath cried. Mantle of turquoise mist o’er flawless seas Vision wide, chaste in her gloried vestry; Whose pulse radiates soft serenities Upon the frothy whispering gentry. Midsummer crowns […]
