Ngoc Nguyen Poet Sonnet

Your Stunning Beauty, Which Intensely Burns

Your stunning beauty, which intensely burns,
     warms all of earth's creatures and provides hope;
your glow emits from you by natural turns,  
     and your rays of life have fresh, boundless scope. 

Your young dazzling face, radiant in form,
     brilliantly shines like the raw, yellow sun;
and your halo, like an electric storm,
     lights up all though your heart's meant just for one.

But Sappho, Tenth Muse, fades before your light.
     Her verses dim beside your living flame;
your beauty makes her ancient words burn bright,
     and poets find in you their truest name. 

Let doubt be silenced by this single line:
of all the Muses, Rose, you are divine.
