Frederic Parker Poet Sonnet

Love's Purer Path

All of me, a singular gift I give
A present given that's without a bow
A purest love, needing a space to live
Becomes a shelter, when storms quickly blow
All of you, quietly fragile and strong
To know there's a place to call home within
A comfort when worlds collapse and go wrong
To seek this heart and give thanks, rejoice in
We can not give anymore than we are
And there's no treasure more precious or pure
We'll place in time's chest as we travel far
To journey this path we know is secure

When the sun rises and the days are new
To see a silhouette of you in the blue

I was not even working for it but was happy when it came to me after being here a few years! I just love making lots of comments and entering lots of contests, and in the process of all this activity, to be gaining points is just frosting on the cupcake!!
