Aditi Mishra Poet Sonnet

Summer's Rhapsody

  Paint me on your canvas of rosy dawn,
     dewy scarlet daisy blooms in soft hues,
       your cherry-dipped fingers dwelling upon,
         crimson cool honey dripping to heart's muse.

  Drench my soul in your ethereal touch,
     Inhaling your musk with lazy noon mush,
       dancing to whispers of orchards you clutch,
         tendrils in vineyard of my cocooned blush.

  Sing me a rhapsody of clouds in white,
    lilac summer holding onto spring breeze,
      my hair tickle your glances at twilight,
        velvet breaths fuse in woods with rustling trees.

  Silver crescents blaze moonlit pearls my love,
     lulled in silks of tranquil stars from above.

Caren Krutsinger May 30, 2020 at 6:48 AM Written as exquisitely as the Old Masters - Coleridge and Shakespeare to name but two. Wordsworth and Thoreau if you need four of them. Well done.

John Watt May 29, 2020 at 8:00 PM What a luscious sonnet of a dreamy summer day! Some excellent summertime nature imagery (rosy dawn, daisy blooms, whispers of orchards, spring breeze, tranquil stars) and romantic overtones (ethereal touch, pearls of love, velvet breaths) painted on a canvas of music, art, and dancing. Lovely on many layers. Best wishes in the contest, my friend. This should do very well ~ John Aditi Mishra May 30, 2020 at 10:52 AM I am glad you loved the images I tried to portray dear friend. Thank you so much for your generous encouragement and wishes John. God bless you :)
