A Sonnet -His Wokmanship

HIS WORKMANSHIP A new dawn breaks, night's other world,off-shaken, we adjust our protective mask donned once more,as we waken; Covering frailty as we dress, hiding weakenesses away, our false personna holds sway against the arrows of the day; This role-play brings us stress forgetting lines in our distress, the armour falls apart and truth seeps from our heart. Then beauty with which each are made becomes our image on parade

It was you who inspired my first sonnet, Brian. You really have a talent for this style. We can don the mask and try to assume false personna, but such fantasies are never lasting. Excellent use of the form, my friend. Best wishes to you for the holidays! Still can't figure out how to use your new site and I don't "Twitter" so I'm glad you posted this one here for all to enjoy. Best wishes for the holidays, Carolyn
