I have a love, my heart so wishes that she knew What ploys and desires can I invoke to win her hand? She treads so lightly so as not to disturb the morning dew And her delicate heart never leaves a mark upon the sand
Oh love of mine please look to where this soul is residing At the edge of the entire world it sees only thine reflection Can you not see that my adoration is forever abiding I would sacrifice all for a moment of your divine affection
For willows cannot weep more than mine own eyes Yet as the rivers flow and carry my dreams to thee All I can see is your vision across all the clouded skies And your look of devotion would forever encompass me
Love, Oh love do not smite me with a dismissing hand For no greater passion can be found across this land

About this poem:
Sonnets are not really my bag, bit too disciplined for me, but I thought I would have a crack at one.
Well..Rob.....in my humble opinion....you did a.... job.....far too hard for me....Kathy PS...hope you liked my humble little ditti for your birthday...LOL
Hi, trurorob, Writing a sonnet is a good way to celebrate one's birthday and one's love. I have a love, my heart so wishes that she knew. First the sonnet, then follow with voice and action. Enjoyed.
Rob, And quite masterfully accomplished....this truly is very well composed and sends a message that's straight to the point.... You're rhyming couplet is a fantastic summation

I had view and comment again Rob.. this really is beautiful for a first sonnet..they are so hard to grasp in format, to which I'm still trying & learning .. well done I say
Hey there Rob - nice poem you've got here. Sonnets are very formal yet are popular as vehicles to declare love for some reason. I hope she doesn't smite you especially as thine dreams are being carried by thee Cool beans
