Declaration of My Love

My dearest one, come hold me close and hold me tight.
Kiss me softly, with tenderness come kiss me light,
We'll wander in our garden, all scented with thyme
For I have given you my heart for all my time.

As the red blood moon smiles and shines above full bright
My heart flies high above like a colourful kite.
We'll wander in our garden, all scented with thyme
For I have given you my heart for all my time.

The high brilliant stars above shine and twinkle white,
And I declare my total love with all my might.
We'll wander in our garden, all scented with thyme
For I have given you my heart for all my time.

We'll make love and vouch for our vows with all our might,
In the heart of darkness, we'll enjoy our sweet night.

Dear Victor, this is such an enchanting and romantic sonnet. I love the refrain lines and the setting you have so poetically created. Wonderful imagery, ‘ red blood moon’ ‘high brilliant stars’ and I love, ‘ In the heart of darkness’. Great rhyming and flow throughout makes this a delightful sonnet. A real pleasure to read. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to you.

"In the heart of darkness, we'll enjoy our sweet night." -- Lovely poem, Victor. Though we are complicated...Love is not. It only requires willingness and then, tender surrender. Excellent poem!

What a lovely and sweet sonnet this is, so beautifully woven in such a passionate manner, expressing love and longing in a very inviting rhythm, that flows seamlessly. I love the opening of your sonnet and also the last couplet really stands out! Along with “ As the red blood moon smiles and shines above full bright My heart flies high above like a colourful kite.” exquisite simile and metaphorical touch to your imagery painted so eloquently! Pleasure reading this,

This is so beautiful , A soft flowing dedication of love , and I think the repetitive line....for I have given you my heart for all my time, emphasises and makes it all the more beautiful. You are a great romantic poet my dear friend. One of your best I feel and a fave for me....Hugs

Even at this age, you are the great bard of passionate and romantic love. The invitation of the man to his dear one to ramble in the garden of thyme in the blood moon night is going to be a thrilling experience. Lovely sonnet dear Victor.

Oh God! Victor . Maurice Jarre with the "theme of Lara" one of my favourities. Fantastic song for a stunning poem about love. This love is gone, nothing you can regret if it was the one you can remember forever. Difficoult moments that life puts you through, but nobody can take what it's in your heart. That belongs especially to you and it's nice you share it for the ones that appreciate you. Love/ María

Dear Victor, What a breathtaking portrait of love. The fragrant garden's imagery bathed in moonlight is a picture of pure intimacy. Lines like "My heart flies high above like a colourful kite" capture that weightless feeling of love's joy. The repetition of "We'll wander in our garden" creates a sense of timeless devotion. Such a beautiful piece. - Blessings, Daniel
