Sorrow Sorrow flies without remorse Never seems to plan a course It lands on all that are to live With ne’er a word of please forgive It’s a feature seems a creature Often poses as a teacher Comes and goes a will o the wisp But its touch is hot and crisp Sorrow touches many a time In age and in your early prime It stays within our future flow It hovers o’er each place we go It is within our weave of gown It’s in the frown of every clown It is the movement of the dance The very nuance of advance Just look within the mirrors eye And tell me if you see a sigh? |

Most definitely Sir Sy....when I look... The old "S" word certainly can find a perch to sit on, can't it? |

"Just look within the mirrors eye And tell me if you see a sigh?" Yes, I looked and saw the sigh, but with each sigh a lesson learned. You are my favorite for your words remind me of a place I've been or one I soon will be. |

Sy, only you could pen sorrow so eloquently I think all will relate and find meaning in your words...sighs Melissa~ Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world! |

Seymour~ 'Sorrow flies without remorse Never seems to plan a course It lands on all that are to live With ne’er a word of please forgive It’s a feature seems a creature Often poses as a teacher Comes and goes a will o the wisp But its touch is hot and crisp' Doesn't happen often (as you well know), but your thoughts leave me 'almost' speechless~ I ponder the wander of your ink~ Thank you, my friend~ *Huglets* ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

It’s a feature seems a creature Often poses as a teacher Comes and goes a will o the wisp But its touch is hot and crisp I did indeed see that sigh, and have felt it so many times. I like to think sorrow is the greatest teacher of them all, and sometimes it actually is. Excellent sonnet Sir Sy. |

Dear "See More," Thanks for the reminder. Sorrow may lead to hopelessness or to hope. It all depends upon the rudder of one's will. |

Sorrow flies without remorse Never seems to plan a course It lands on all that are to live With ne’er a word of please forgive I really enjoyed this section, but the whole thing is great, really has some emotion behind it. |
