Frederic Parker Poet Sonnet

Without Lament

Cry with no sorrow, for sorrow is small
Do not hold me guilty for choices made
Reflections you own hang on your mind's wall
Hold them very close, one day they will fade
My time passed without a sense of motion
My dreams now silent with darkness I'm in
The life I traveled with love's emotion
Leads from this world, not to be seen again
I sought life out filled with all my desires
And tried to capture perfection I found
I saw my way lighted by hopeful fires
And chose a clearer path to faithful ground
The longest journey was my lifetime spent
Hurried times I traveled,  without lament

Lady Labyrinth June 21, 2019 at 9:13 PM "If thou remember’st not the slightest folly That ever love did make thee run into, Thou hast not loved." One must always seek out the hopeful fires to choose a clearer path to faithful ground. x Frederic Parker June 22, 2019 at 7:19 AM thank you for the comparison dear poet
