Sotto Poet Poet Sonnet

Notes About The Poem

To Me You Are Everything

Stalwarts of fondness will last for eons,
a humble candle flame that glows as neon.
If my love for you is at a searing depth,
dyes pierce the air as beams on breadth.

Only love can heal the molten, burning page,
a sublime, lofty yearning for wider rage.
It sparkles as a scorching protuberance,
to the point of tumultuous exuberance.

No one is a seer of another place or time.
could wish to have a body or face sublime.
My veins were swarming with warm blood.
Implications for the mind are still being thud.

And every night, swaying in hope from above,
as I am drowning in the heavenly flow of love.

Barbara Barry-Nishanian April 13, 2023 at 6:39 PM Fantastic placement for well deserved win. "Lofty yearning for wider rage" that and so many lines explain why I didn't place. You work magic with your words, but then you usually do. Congrats my friend.

Speaks Volumes April 13, 2023 at 1:09 AM I know wow is hardly appropriate for such a fine poem, but its the first word that came to me after reading it. Reminiscent of the style that Bards scribed the classics we know and love. I dips me lid to ya SP. (means: I take my hat off to you )
