Frederic Parker Poet Sonnet

Notes About The Poem

A Softer Glow

A softer glow from sunset's chandelier
Warm kisses on the pier of surrender
Reflections captured by lover's so clear
Romance entangles when evenings render
Silhouettes shade where the horizon meets
Timeless and breathless when passions persist
The Sea's slow metronome measures heartbeats
Inraptured kisses and a twilight's mist
To feel the soul shimmer beneath the sky
Hear the Sea lap on the poles of the pier
Find quiet realms in the calm of an eye
That silently lift whenever I'm near
The beauty of love we found by the Sea
Kept close to our heart a silent decree

Artsieladie Sharon Donnelly April 3, 2018 at 3:58 AM Your title, "A Softer Glow" is so fitting, Frederic. We often get caught up in the passion and desire, its heat and fire, we tend to forget or overlook the 'softness and gentleness' of love, which you remind me of superbly well. :) Congrats! ~ Artsie
