Sonnet

Note: This new sonnet born from first stanza comment made on my having read both Nina's blog titled, What Rhymes 2: Cross-Border Disorder and then my immediate reading of
M.L. Kiser's new poem, titled, "Stars Above".
I got started writing and I simply could not stop.....
Dedicated to you my friends , Nina Parmenter and M.L. Kiser- because your words given and sweet verses inspired the creation of this new piece.

O' The Many Things Brighter Stars Have Seen O' the many things brighter stars have seen through the long ages of our hopes and regrets lives, loves, losses, and all the in between all of the all, humanity begets! O' the sights, lovers basking in moon light sweet memories that one may think divine under star-lite gaze, its Heavenly sight dearest kisses, signaling all is fine. O' the grace felt in soft, gentle night's breeze its healing power to heart touch and save begs romance that sings, blossoms into ease passion's truth, serenity's path it paves. O' that life would bring its happiness true With smallest of hope within me or you. Robert J.

Again, thank you my dear friend. This piece is truly an inspired one. The verses came to me much like drinking cool water on a hot summer day. I love it when that happens and the poetry Gods smile upon we weak and tooooooo oft wandering in the vast and foreboding wilderness mere mortals..

Thank you my dear friend. Your wonderful poetry has inspired me today to start a romantic poem-first stanza now completed. May take a bit to ever get completed, as I have 7 poems started as of right now and two other collaborations ongoing.

My fine friend, it is I that must thank you for the inspiration your poem gave me. What started out as just a 4 verse reply(stanza) inspired by your poem, turned into a creative and much inspired finished sonnet.

Thank you my friend. I am glad that it suddenly struck me to compose the first stanza as a comment to M.L. Kiser's poem. I got started and couldnt stop. Sometimes when driving, I may think of verses or a first stanza and I pull over to be able to safely jot it down. Kind of crazy-huh? lol
