A Sonnet With No Name A thousand times a thousand eyes, my beauty have beheld Into their hearts my song’s exquisite lyrics softly meld I am a sonnet with no name, a number was bestowed And christened by the noted hand that penned me long ago I’m printed in thick volumes upon glaze of paper page Such a lowly dwelling for the wonders of a sage And yet aesthetic fingers still my weathered leaf unfold And gaze into my passion with a look of lust for gold Enchanted are the hearts who read and feast on every line Enticed to taste again the vintage flavor of my wine I am the inspiration for the ink of feathered quill The essence of my muse into their aura I instill Yet I am well beyond the reach of finger’s lengthy touch For none have come to equal me, the sonnet loved so much And now I feel my page unveiled, another one has come To read me to a lover in the red of setting sun Elizabeth Santos [This message has been edited by Elizabeth Santos (12-30-2001 10:08 PM).] |

"Enchanted are the hearts who read and feast on every line Enticed to taste again the vintage flavor of my wine I am the inspiration for the ink of feathered quill The essence of my muse into their aura I instill" I wish I wrote this |

You are the soul of the sonnet. I admire your immense talent at writing them. A sonnet with no name...I would title, "BEAUTIFUL." ***Ivy Rose |
