I speak, my maiden coyness long forgot, My passion clearly laid before your view, Exposed my every feeling, all my thought, An open book awaiting your review. I sing my heart in sonnets soft and sweet. I whisper tender words into the air. I'm smiling, laughing, dancing down the street. I feel you all the time and everywhere. I've never understood the courtship rules. To me, the way I feel is not a game. If distance and pretense must be the tools In arts of love, I guess I'm doomed to shame. But if you want an open heart and true, Accept the gift I freely offer you. |

Kethry - Thank you. I'm not much good at hiding what I feel. Mr. Magoo - I can see you are very kind. Thank you. Marge - Thank you. Maybe too open, but that's the way it is. To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

A wonderful sonnet! Well expressed, I believe that many of us want this and offer our souls, yet, this is taken for granted the most. Take care, Melissa The beauty of poetry gives my soul wings to fly free within dreams |

Charisma - Thanks for the "wonderful" reply. Melissa - Yes, sometimes the offer is taken for granted, or rejected, and it hurts, but I think it's still worth risk, don't you? Thanks for reading. Seymour - Thank you very much. You are one of many here who inspire. Kathleen - Thank you. I am glad to have warmed the heart of such an exquisite poet. Gale - Thanks for your kind review. Sometimes they aren't so harsh after all. Keep that heart open. hugs To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

I don't think any man in his right mind could say no to that. Wonderful sonnet. I enjoyed it much. |
