Sonnet 353 (Love as Sweet)
The sun so softly shines where love does grow
The night cannot obscure such rays so bright
But where you are the fairest light I know
Where all on earth must bend before your light.
The Robin sings so sweetly in the day
The silence, now, is smitten by her sound
And where you’re heard a melody does play
So, in my heart, my harmony is found.
The ocean’s waves upon the shore do land
Their ebbs and flows do bring serenity
The way I’m calm by ho...

Sonnet 351 (Only Come from You)
What sound I hear that whispers in the air?
An angel's voice that found an earthly ear
So sweet I need not climb to Heaven's stair
For with such chords is Heaven singing here.
Yet, 'round I look and nothing do I see
A spirit, then, must be the reason why
I cannot touch but yet envelops me
My cares erase and draws from me a sigh.
The trees before such melody do dance
The river's flow reflects its rhythmic sound
That nature bends and shakes to such ...

Death's Second Self
This mythical fascination with immortality
I believe each moment here is precious
Though I know Death will stop for me
Then the life I live here most relish.
When that time comes and I must leave
I wish my time here remembered well
Though those left behind for me may grieve
The example I left, I wish, lives on to tell.
No need to hope this earth no limits give
The time it allows is enough for me
I am grateful for those moments it lets me live
Though there ma...

Sonnet 348 (Your Radiance Show)
This is the night whose stars most clearly shine
Because my love the brightest of them all
An earthly star, not Heaven’s, but mine
Whose brilliance even angels does enthrall.
And through the void your spirit I still feel
No distance keeps a love like ours away
And through your hold I learn all else is real
The thought of you keeps my darkness far away.
And so, the night can never grow too deep
For on this earth the morning with you lives
And when ...

To Stay
A new place, another chapter to be written
The contents of which I am unsure
But I hope my role is fitting
For a man who has already too much to endure.
This final part I play I wonder who will decide
If it even cares about my past
For will it to my hopes or to fate abide
And if the right players cast.
But here my will and fate can agree
There is one way to happily conclude this play
And if fate doesn’t decide on tragedy
That my love returns to me to stay.

Love
Love is an ever-fixed mark that never alteration finds
But lasts past even the reaches of Time
It is the essence that the universe binds
And not even confined to this rhyme.
No, it never bends to fickle need or passion
But only feeds them, instead
Once lit is the flame past all reason
That is the light to where our heart is led.
It is the Northern Star that guides the sailor to shore
Even though the tempests threaten his vessel
Guiding him past the storm and to safety’s har...

Sonnet 347 (From these Lines)
The rain may fall and, too, the wind may blow
But, still, inside my heart the sun does shine
Because our love you let the world now know
And now don't need to live within this rhyme.
And like the sun that, soon, will find the day
What burns inside can’t long remain so far
And your own warmth you brought along my way
That love I feel no darkness, here, can bar.
Our secret, here, could hardly have been kept
The passion that we share is much too strong...

Northern Girl
I met this Northern girl but in her felt no cold
I felt warm around her
I only wanted her hand to hold
So, our love could stir.
I think I will text her tonight
Right now, I am in the mood
To shake away what is right
So, in the morning don’t have to brood.
Then, scared if this Northern woman doesn’t reply
But when I hear back from her, I learn
Why no climate can from her heart pry
That love that, in my heart, burn.

Sonnet 346 (Your Love did Meet)
Shall I still mourn the loss my heat does know
Like days that miss the notes that birds did sing?
Or like the Spring your love in my heart grow
And keep the warmth that once to me did bring.
Shall I forget the times your beauty knew
Like that sweet rose the cold its petals shed?
Or like the sun your essence still shine through
And no day dark but bright where your love led.
Shall I go on but grateful for your love
Like summers known before the wi...

Life but a Dream
I dreamt about you last night
Again, what this world denies dreams make true
Showing that this place never out of your sight
And what it hides in another realm find you.
And this dream stirred me to reach you here
When you answered that dream became real
So, the border between us should not fear
For the permanency of our love reveal.
And life is but a dream the bard does tell
So, your beauty both realms transcend
For when your love in my heart does dwell
Our pa...

Melody
****
Let me make this simple and brief
Like the birds who sing naturally
Since you left Time has been a thief
Stealing those moments you were next to me.
****
For everyone else this Earth their playground
Where their fantasies on this stage play
But this stage only empty if you’re not around
But what a romantic play if you only did stay.
****
There are heaving oceans and brilliant meadows
Roads travelled and where few have tread
Where the Raven beckons behind the shado...
