Heart Song

I hear the rhythm beneath your breast,
music of intense emotion,
with a volume of such depth,
it bypasses my ears
to enter my mind,
which interprets
for my heart
and tears
fall

This is beautiful, Nigel. I love the line "music of intense emotion". Very passionate and moving write. Glad you liked the sonnet. My second attempt. Plan on doing more with that lovely form. Love Robin
