Nette Onclaud Poet Sonnet

Finding Me

To sigh deep in the interlude of time
Before my world of silence closes in, 
As nightfall marks the ticks of birdsong’s chime
And let a North Star bless my world within.
The change of song brings memories’ relief
Questioning not what dreams are all about;
So chant dear sparrows and take flight with peace
And will my wings to rise without a doubt.
Then drizzles spill for moments truly felt
For graced tokens of charms are now endowed;
When solace glides as fragrant raindrops melt
To lounge on twilight’s edge , draped by its  shroud.

Oh, joy so calm beneath the pewter moon
A journey trailed,  where dawn will find me soon.
