Sonnet What shall I say to tell you of my love Will it be in the music of a phrase Or will it fall like dewdrops from above Or snowflakes lightly swirling in a glaze How does one measure love in just a word How do you tell of honor and of trust I’d rather be a little singing bird And warble out my tune without a fuss So timid is my voice to speak my heart Convinced that I will falter in my fear Shall I just memorize an actor's part Or read some dulcet words for you to hear I think a I'll write a sonnet just for you To best express a love so pure and true Elizabeth Santos |

Timid is not something I see in your writings, ever... there is a quiet strength that gives us all pause... well done Lady Santos... |

This inspires me to write a sonnet or two during my haitus from life! Thank you, Elizabeth! " I walked beside the evening sea And dreamed a dream that could not be" George William Curtis" |
