Sonnet No1

How do I compare to thee?

Your intransience knows no bounds

Id gesticulate more often than not

Your red Mantra dress knows no warmth

Your like a mermaid uncaught

You're darndest to know

You're like a Newfoundland

Leeching perilous unreason

Your everyone’s confidante except mine

You turn me into wilderness

I do not know my heart? 

I am left speechless

On the morning of your coming

you leave me dumb confounded
