Shadows touch, casting a slight glimpse of doubt some say tears holding pain will bring despair and fear held within, a heart is without I say, simple joy is the way you care Comfort will stay, hope is everlasting there is peace in love, when moments are true found only in the tenderness you bring even when darkness wants to control you Some like to say that trials break down the weak, leaving them so helplessly unaware makes one stronger, words from the heart I speak humble in spirit, we have all been there Shadows will follow, depth will hold on tight calm remains, when love is a gentle light ------ ~ Peace is found only in the Light ~ Author’s Note- Even though writing a Sonnet isn’t something my muse is familiar with. (It was nudged to create one) I am delighted this has happened.

Back to enjoy this one. Love the picture -"A poet and her mews" haha. Enjoyed the second time through even more, a fav. There is peace in love, "even when darkness wants to control you". Love wins over darkness. Hugs ~ John

I went back to one of your older writes because I'm so in love with sonnets. Thank you for branching out and trying the unfamiliar. I find this poem so uplifting and full of hope - light winning out over darkness. I especially love the last couplet... indicative of an enduring love that never lets go. Hugs ~ John

Thank you John. Sonnets are not difficult to compose, yet I haven't truly lingered in them. I am happy that I took a moment to scribble this. A favorite of mine as well. Light scatters darkness. Always. You and your thoughts are appreciated. :) Brandy

This is lovely, Brandy, with much truth and wisdom and emotion ... I enjoyed it thoroughly! I put off writing Sonnets for a long time, thinking I wouldn't like the form, then tried it and fell in love with the form ... they're still relatively new to me, but like you, I am thankful they have found me. Wonderful write! :-)

Thank you Gregory. When my muse decides to write another Sonnet, I believe this one will always be my favorite, because of the truth and emotion. You and your thoughts are appreciated. ~ Brandy

You say that you are not familiar with this style, but this sonnet speaks otherwise. A beautifully written piece, Brandy! Very well done...Charlie :)

My muse isn't familiar with this form, meaning I don't write in this way. However, I can when my muse wants to. :) I do like form of poetry. You are so sweet. Thank you Charlie for being You!! ~ Brandy

The light how it shines here so clear and so concise. Irony? Perhaps, perhaps not. Either way a shadow is bound to us all. Beautifully written.

I love the thought that love overcomes the shadows of doubt and brings an everlasting peace, Brandy. A wonderfully written sonnet and on your first one, your muse did a fine job. John
