Frederic Parker Poet Italian Sonnet

Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Love Is Immortal

Unmask this night, let our love transpire
A free and wondrous kiss with love's embrace
Allow finger's passion to boldly trace
As we enjoy our night dreams sweet desire
To paint beautiful pictures to inspire
The moon's soft glowing light will brush your face
Treasured memories  time will not erase
In dim light of night our love will conspire

We'll appease hunger with our mouth's consent
With soft whispered words from love's craving song
A warm breathless universe to explore
Until time has slowed to capture its intent
We'll drift away in worlds where we belong
Two prisoners in love forevermore

Rhonda Johnson-Saunders February 21, 2017 at 12:34 AM A beautifully passionate sonnet, Frederic. I know this will do well in the contest! lots of luck and thanks for your visit today. I know what you mean about feeling invisible sometimes even around people who are supposed to know us. it's funny how we can feel most alone in a crowd and so what do we do? We write! That's where we shine...hugs to you, Rhonda
