Sweet Lady of the Lakes and Fells

Dear muse, I penned this verse with feather quill,
To gently praise your beauty of renown,
My words to float aloft your gaze until,
They softly kiss your eyes like thistledown.

One single thought of you is all I need,
Pure beams of gold to light my dulling day,
A gorgeous wildflower peers from tangled weed,
And paints a splash of colour to my grey.

My lonely shadow drapes this em'rald shore,
With somber heart I yearn your close embrace,
Between us how wild stormy waters roar,
Such tempest I would brave to touch your face.

Fond kisses blown on gentle winds your way,
Warm breezes seek wherein the fells you stray.

Hi Mick

In the world of poetry, sonnets have long being recognised by many writers as the supreme poetic platform for romantic verse, and this superb sonnet demonstrates exactly why.

Outstanding writing buddy...

Hi Mick,

A lovely sonnet. I can understand why men used poetry to woo women in the past. Now I guess it's the lyrics of good pop songs. Perhaps thing haven't changed that much. So nice to have a muse and it's good to see that the muse is well aware of her inspirational role. This sonnet has a lovely mythical quality. Well done. cheers
