Love Sonnet Take 1

Firm against the tempest we stand Hip to hip and hand in hand And when your hair flicks my nose An excited shiver reaches my toes As we stand beneath shining full moon I shuffle a little to create room To fully appreciate the breathless sight That is your beauty by silvery light Then I look upon that incongruous stanza Doubts roll through me like a German Panzer But stressors melt at the touch of your palm For when we embrace my mind goes calm We hang our destinies on the same hook And into a hazy future together we look

Scott, this poem is wonderful. I'm not into Sonnet pomes. However, this has the perfect touch and flow. Lovely in every sense....Linda

Scott, I am sorry you missed the contest with this great poem, but keep it for another contest perhaps, well done and again thanks for my wonderful placement in your contest and for the inspiration that allowed me to create my beautiful poem, tattered pages, it took me to a very meaningful place in my soul, your themes always do that to me, I have received many wonderful comments on the poem and that makes me very happy~~

this is a very interesting love sonnet, my friend. Oh my I am so silly. I just now read the note at the top mentioning a tank, and I was asking myself, where did he mention a tank? So I reread it, and that must be the German Panzer. REally helped me understand that line better to know it was a tank!!! hahahaha. GREAT poem.

Good detailing and setting described here Scott, with the ambiguity of reality..'
