Humm. Ok I'll try again.

Unfaithfull Love

The dark of night crept slowly from the east
and told of mysteries in quiet song
that spoke of love and laughter at a feast
the forest would enjoy all evening long.
But night embraced the chill of humid air
that left the forest cloaked in sorrows sea
The treachery of love now brought despair
and tears the only wine would ever be.
The forest wept through out the dark of night
until it knew the pain would be undone.
Remembering that twilight's silver light,
the salutation of the evening sun

Gave promise that with dawn it would return
to dry the tears of dew upon the fern.

Amazing how two little words can make a difference : ) I liked it before Ohme, but like it better now. Sorry, but I can't say anything about meter and da-Dums. : ) Am having a lot of trouble with that myself. : )

If I ever take another class with you again I will certainly come sit by you again. I am so pleased with my grade. I think you helped me defend myself from fate! I hope your Dutch flu has flown away.

After half a bottle of California Chardonnay, this looks rather good to me
Actually Ohme, it does look good, nice one

Without a doubt, a sterling example of a Shakespearean sonnet. (But you still need to change sorrows into sorrow's)

You had some excellent lines in here, my friend -- my particular favorites being those which comprise the finishing couplet.

A job well done, indeed!
