Premium Member An English Sonnet of Adoration
Thy countenance behooves what I adore The sun is dim beside your smile and glow I see things in you never seen before You make my heart beat anything but slow Your feet they float on surface where we walk Your clothing wafts like mist above the ground I look at you and find it hard to talk My voice does...

Premium Member The Waterfall An English Sonnet
Water flowing downward from the hilltop Meandering through gullies and the fell Even bigger mountains for the backdrop Where it really starts so hard to tell Reaching a low cliff it becomes airborne And plunges to the pool not far below Down there in amongst the thriving buckhorn Where fish live in the depths and lesser flow Colours dance in spray that rises...

It'Ll Bring ::The English Sonnet Or the Shakespearean Sonnet Or the Elizabethan Sonnet
Simple question was asked but they fumble; What are you going to do with your life? Most of them babble, to speak they struggle; Appears they don't know how to handle strife. Don't have idea for their future day lost their direction that shows confusion. Answer to question is simple if they apply their minds, there can't be illusion. It's to...

English Sonnet
DEEDS Along life's way there are the little cells, inside of which are lives in parallel, the walls are windowless so no-one sees therein if hearts are warm or cold diseased. The island of the home and of the man, small enclaves set upon an oceans span where living is dim seen amongst the waves, close as your hand, far away as the...

Unappreciating 11-20-2012 Acrostic-English Sonnet
Unwilling to trade her time for my rhymes? Needless to say, this is never the way Any Poet earns a flirtaceous dime, Paid whenever efforts are made each day. Perhaps this task could be too much to ask Right now. How much time does it take to make Efforts? Escort sadness behind my mask, Creating a debating heart that breaks. Insensitive or misunderstood...

Disappointment Acrostic English Sonnet
Destiny made a way out of my reach, Instead of welcoming with open arms Spread wide. To each his own! On my own, each And every day, I did life no harm. Priorities, other than me, came first, Prior to closing my eyes and dreaming Of better days. But, bad days made the worst Inceptions; Days and nights double teaming. Nothing prepared me...

Ashley Williams English Sonnet
Ashley William has become my new muse, Since she has inspired me with her charm, Her beauty, and her wit, which help me use Lustfull images that could do no harm. Eventually, I will warm her heart, Yearning for her to approve my advance With one of her own, thus playing her part, In a game we are playing at a glance. Let...

The Scottish One (English Sonnet)
I bid welcome at this, our magic hour as we create the witch’s potent brew, Macbeth is yearning for a kingly pow’r a plot of murder, deeds so foul construe. From the shadows he came into the cave when witch’s chant the secrets to the night thrice venom portrayed visions from the grave, as aged Crones were faded out of sight. Beware Macbeth,...

The End (Atypical English Sonnet With Abba Rhyme Scheme)
For months our sun has hovered overhead To crack the barren earth across its land. The streams run dry, no summer buds expand, No desert death has ever been so dead. No haven safe as place where souls can run Since truth, in brutal slumber, woke and found A final fury tightly wound around Each ember edifice of dying sun. Malignant flaws turn...

The Black Hound of Destiny (English Sonnet In Tetrameter)
As darkness takes our souls to hell what has become of pleasant dreams when death has tolled its final bell no one remains to hear the screams. Gwyllgi calls, the end is near as demons dance across the land their laughter chills a heart with fear for fate has shown her evil hand. Awash with blood to purify the world of Man's eternal rage no...

A Forgotten Résumé (English Sonnet)
The sun is sinking into seas of gold as lovers sit and talk of used to be's carafes of wine as stories are retold and laughter sparkles on a dusky breeze. A glance recalls the kiss of yesterday how passion burned beneath her silky skin as love revealed a forgotten résumé, desire and hunger linger deep within. As lovers gaze across the empty...

A Prisoner No More-An English Sonnet
Whispered sighs cause my lonesome soul to soar Released, it is distressed by stormy seas Tattooed lonely secrets my dead heart bore Forlorn harbor has brought me to my knees Distant window my weathered eyes have spied Through clear glass your beauty is seen within Raging sea surrounding me now has died Can you embrace then cast away my sin? Silhouette construes such...

Beneath Rough Hands-An English Sonnet
Distain, dripping now, from lying forked tongue Transcending eyes upon shattered back door Your poisonous breath has filled your black lung My skin, silky beneath rough hands, has tore I beg, freedom from bleak endless suffering How your hands fit perfectly ‘round my neck My mere flesh no longer is buffering Your dark, hysterical, heated mad trek My soul never was yours for...
