William Shakespeare, Writer Painting by Esoterica Art Agency - Fine Art America

"We know what we are, but know not what we may be." William Shakespeare, 1564-1616 I write poems of nature, love, loss, grief, my sweet mentor Shakespeare brought back to life; writing of past things that creep like a thief, of morals, visions, virtue and life's strife. William, my pen is haunted with old woes, and knocking on my door, knocking- is death; help me to find the words to fight these foes, I want joy- not moaning of each last breath. Yes, will pen sweet jewels of nature's bliss, my pen is your pen- you are my muse guide; words of faith, life and of love we will kiss; Oh William, promise to bestow you pride. In the end- I will pen farewell, farewell; and words like birds set free will ever dwell. __________________ January 11, 2023 Poetry/Sonnet/Life's Wavering Passge Copyright Protected,ID 01/11/2023 All Rights Reserved, 2023, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, Shakespeare in 2023 sponsor, Anoucheka Gangabissoon, Judged 01/16/2023

We think we are alive until God reveals we are dead , and through Him we might die to old self to receive life : )

Love your poem , and all you stand for , we can use all of our past experiences in life to look back at what God has brought us out of in life, to stay humble that God gives us peace and love , nothing we can do but give up and seek His love and guidance to share ,
