The Pillar of Our Love

Across the table gazing in your eyes I see the bright reflections of our love, and like a sweet duet we harmonize with soulful melodies of mourning dove. Our love is ever present in my mind; these feelings that to you I do impart. For not a better lover could I find; you will remain forever in my heart. You touch my hand, my pulsing passions rise; My ever fervid fantasies take flight. I wonder if this leads to love’s surprise, and tangled sheets on sultry, summer night. My love you are the bedrock of my soul; the pillar which forever makes love whole.

Ohh, such a lovely and luscious sonnet, John. A sensual and loving beauty, especially your third stanza, which got my pulse racing.. Your closing couplet is superb! Congratulations on your awesome win with your beautifully rhythmic and impassioned sonnet. Warmest wishes my friend.. ~Susan
