Scott Thirtyseven Poet Sonnet

Love Sonnet Take 1

Firm against the tempest we stand
Hip to hip and hand in hand
And when your hair flicks my nose
An excited shiver reaches my toes

As we stand beneath shining full moon
I shuffle a little to create room
To fully appreciate the breathless sight
That is your beauty by silvery light

Then I look upon that incongruous stanza
Doubts roll through me like a German Panzer
But stressors melt at the touch of your palm
For when we embrace my mind goes calm

We hang our destinies on the same hook
And into a hazy future together we look

Constance La France August 29, 2015 at 10:10 AM Scott, I am sorry you missed the contest with this great poem, but keep it for another contest perhaps, well done and again thanks for my wonderful placement in your contest and for the inspiration that allowed me to create my beautiful poem, tattered pages, it took me to a very meaningful place in my soul, your themes always do that to me, I have received many wonderful comments on the poem and that makes me very happy~~

Andrea Dietrich August 26, 2015 at 11:10 PM this is a very interesting love sonnet, my friend. Oh my I am so silly. I just now read the note at the top mentioning a tank, and I was asking myself, where did he mention a tank? So I reread it, and that must be the German Panzer. REally helped me understand that line better to know it was a tank!!! hahahaha. GREAT poem.

Joe Maverick August 26, 2015 at 12:13 AM Good detailing and setting described here Scott, with the ambiguity of reality..'
