Were stars to shine in luminescence faint And moonbeams fain to fade light pale My heart would yet o’erflow constraint And seek to serve beyond its dated tale To softly speak of love’s lost potency Imbued with succulent smoothness Washing waves of opulent regency O’er the sand-soft stones of fullness Embedding heart’s desire in fancied flame Yet fretting not at listless discontent That mellows soul within its frame To which my love for thee was lent From realms of soulful prosperity With interest due in loving only me |

Thank you, Margherita…you make it sound so good that I am starting to feel so much better Faithm, thank you…I really appreciate you taking the time to not only read, but also to comment Legacy, thanks, had to go back and look at its form…didn’t realize it was in sonnet form (just wrote it down as it came, but I used to write only in Shakespearean sonnet form…dull, huh?) Et, your words were kind and appreciated…thank you (and I am glad you enjoyed) |

Great work! I didn't even realize it was a sonnet til the couplet dinged a bell. Not dull at all. Lori |

Ida, thank you...it is good to be back...have spent a lot of time just reading, some replying and now writing again...feels good Lori, appreciate your kind review...as for the dull part...just remember, (in a Gump-like way) ...dull is as dull does |
