Sonnet 5: Air of the Burial Ground

Resolve of a Burial Ground
Came our love with an expiry date, Sooner that knocked the door, not so late. None of us wantonly wished to break, But teenage love in time rusts to shake.

Burial Ground
Star-studded sky With blossoming blue light Beautifying the grace Of the flowing water Making an eternal sound Makes me spell-bound ! Sun-smeared sky With flooded light Falling on beautiful flowers, Dews in the morning Refreshing nature all around Makes me spell-bound !

Hurt heart-sky With pleading tears Praying for some balms On the wounded...
