Einstein's Ring

i hope you enjoy this go at an English sonnet and a bit of romancing the Science ... i added a haiku for the same title for fun .. let me know what you think :)

Einstein's Ring

My darkness falls over your haloed brow;

beguiling my heart, seducing my dream.

These eyes in search, the sourcing of the Tao,

a beauty eclipsed beyond what it seems.

Fair light is bending 'round curves, thus renew

dark matter enraptured heart in the skies

my gravity closing  a rainbow hue

to gather wrapped fingers of stars and sighs

Your presence was hiding behind cold shield;

while lightning explodes in brilliant arrays

Light sounding 'round heavenly faces yield

sun rings while Helios tightly at bay.

Gaze not in wonder God's gifts that abound;

songs of the Universe sing and resound. 

Haiku (of the same title)

galaxies hiding

eclipsing eyes perceiving

light bends delighting

Author's Note

from Wikipedia
"n observational astronomy an Einstein ring, also known as an Einstein-Chwolson ring or Chwolson ring, is the deformation of the light from a source (such as a galaxy or star) into a ring through gravitational lensing of the source's light by an object with an extremely large mass (such as another galaxy or a black hole)."[1][2]

dark matter: (same sourse)"Dark matter is a type of matter comprising approximately 27% of the mass and energy in the observable universe that is not accounted for by dark energy,"

dark energy: "a theoretical repulsive force that counteracts gravity and causes the universe to expand at an accelerating rate.
"Einstein's theories allow for the possible existence of dark energy" "

For me, and aside of the Author's note, this was a meditation's experience, the connection with the higher divine power, the images You saw through it, the presence of Your lover whom was firmly there almost in each image, it was like floating through the universe, an experience not many can fully go through. an amazing sonnet Mr.E something new from You for me to read, and it was a pleasure and real joy, the Haiku is quite amazing and strong too, it's like a "waking up" message to open the mind, to see beyond what eyes can see, and in both poems I felt a sentimental yearning waving gently like the calm sea behind Your lines.

Thank You for sharing Your superb experience with all of us.

what can i say Light ... such a sensitive reflective read and review on your part ... i could not feel more gratified as a writer ... when you see and feel all the things in a poem we are truly connected says i! thanks so much Light! glad you liked it ... yes, sonnets are not my cup of tea and i have to work extra hard at them .. but i think i grow a bit each time i do ... as well as some of the other strict classical forms ... they stretch my word appreciation :}

What a lovely, well thought out sonnet to Einstein. And it flows very nicely, in my opinion -- I didn't count syllables, but Richard's iambic training has now made me see a few dips in the iambics -- dear Lord, who am I? So the thing is -- I think -- a person does one of two things -- recognizes and acknowledges where they took licence, or adjusts it accordingly. That, my friend, is entirely up to you. It still stands on its own as a wonderful piece, either way.

as i shared with you ...i was lazy .. with this encouragement form you i will go back to the board and make it better if i can ... but it will take a while ;) and will let you know right away when i have made changes ... and i agree ..one can "print it" as is with acknowledgments of sins .. but i want this one to be correct ..thanks again for your review and taking time to read

I know just the thing. I will share with you my torture over the My love for you Chained in a Sonnet, and it will all make sense.:)

going there my friend!

[Lyn Anderson]

Yes, I see, the Ring could most easily be moved to accommodate the Iambics, and the rather, and matter, the toughest two are the existence and insistence.

this is so not easy .... rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr! and i see the third verse is way off .. thank you so much for your help!!!! i'll see what i can come up with .. in the AM ... love and peace KL!

[Lyn Anderson]

I know your pain, my friend. I really do.

Such a sweet blending of science, spirituality, romance, and sensuality. "disrobed in soft colors exploding " GREAT phrase here. I enjoyed the Haiku you added. The entire package is magical. Lydi**
