Night Angel

In deep slumber madness, she comforts me
Appearing, unencumbered, from the mist
Subconscious suspension our nightly tryst
Erasing my mind of bad memories
She mends and warms my soul so tenderly
Imbibing my thoughts and heart with her kiss
Lovingly fulfills a long ago wish
Thankfully restoring my sanity
Regularly she visits in silence
Enlightening my dreams with wholesomeness
Wiping my tears of angered betrayal
Exchanging her love for malevolence
I awaken with renewed happiness
Refreshed from the angelic portrayal

Daniel, this is such a beautiful romantic Italian Sonnet! It sings from the heart and soul of the lover in praise of the wonder of the beloved one. Thank you for mystically transporting me to another place and time through the power of your magical pen! A-7 and blessings always. Pandita

Thank you so much. I've really been trying hard to learn to write these sonnets. They can be very aggravating at times. It means a lot to me that you spent your time reading and commenting. It is not only encouraging but very supportive. Peace and God Bless:)
