`Words of Love`

~Words Of Love~(Sonnet)

 

Love you are to me, drops of honeywine
With each new kiss beneath the golden sun
Your lips sweet bouquet, quench this thirst of mine
Our love has entwined, for all time as one.

Valentine,we shall sing loves sweetest tune
Share eternal bliss, 'neath a silver moon
Of Cupid's Cup, we'll drink a toast to love
Kindly condoned by the heavens above

Let's reach for the highest star in the sky
These words of love, are meant for only you
The sun, moon and stars, know this to be true
Forever, we'll cherish love, you and I

You are to me sweet Love, my heart's delight
These Words of Love I'll pledge, each day, each night.

Great mythic imagery for Valentine's Day: "drops of honeywine" in "Cupid's Cup." This is a wonderful answer to the Valentine's Day Challenge -- and you didn't even have to wrack your brain for something new! :D

This one hales back to Victorian romantic poetry for me. Love it. How did I miss it before?

NOTES: you need spaces behind several of your commas

[Fran Marie]

Most definitely an oldie from years ago, thanks so much for reviewing and the notes..

[Diana Owen Busy with Li..]

wow very sweet and beautifully written.

[T.k. Sutter]

Wow (I'm saying that a lot today). Very rarely do I read a sonnet that flows like the ones of our most famous poets, but this one does. Such beautiful and romantic words...wonderful!

[Dead Angel]

[Yvonne Heidt]

You write beautlfully. This did make me "feel" love - and that's what good writing does!

[Nicole (Carpe Diem)]

very sweet and beautiful piece... nice write

[Kristin Brecoe]

awwww. this is sweet and flowed adorably.

Haha. that's one way to describe a poem. I've never called a poem adorable before...

[Norma J. Jessee]

Fran, you take my breath away. Your writing is so beautiful and I can feel it comes from the heart.
This is the way I want to write. You have such God given talent. If I could write like you I 'd probably keep a pen in my hand.

[Barry S. Maltese]

So very sweetly written. It is wonderful how deeply you feel love, and how tenderly your words flow from your heart. With an almost Shakespearen flare you paint wonderful images of gentle kisses being shared in a lovely setting. Nicely done.

[Deborah Leah Krempa]

The sun, the moon, the stars know this to be true...as they are the ultimate witnesses of your love...very beautifully penned.
