My absence from you renders absence wrong, As if an April day of frozen rain, Whose sun in such a scene does much belong, That sun and season reunite again. What strident force of nature drives me here, Like brazen buds surviving through the snow, Still striving up that nourishment be near, To seek above, so what's beneath may grow. Is nature's way confounded that I'm so Perverse to feel the warmth behind the cloud That bids me on to seek what does not show, Admitting rays of hope through hopeless shroud. The sun obscured is nonetheless as true, And so am I, though far away from you |

Lulu, Good to see you back. I love your sonnet.  You want nourishment...how about staying a while in the Pub and sharing a few beers? Stick around, I have a feeling there might be another sonnet workshop soon. ~Gene |

I love this. I agree, stay awhile. May your roof never fall in and those beneath it never fall out. Irish proverb. |
