Frederic Parker Poet Sonnet

Beautiful Mystery

How deep is a wish from a falling star?
How soft the realm when two hearts give in?
A flash of light in a dark reservoir
When lovers find love in an Autumn wind
The star has awakened their restless soul
Like striking a match across darkened skies
Sensual wish less emotion's control
Beneath stars aloft come whispering sighs
In the dreams of the night, a trail was seen
To see a star flaming while souls embrace
Autumn winds blew as a star intervene
A gift, a wish, a vanquished star to trace
Beauty and mystery, a star's last cries
A beautiful mystery was her eyes
