Love Sonnet 103

Shall I caress petals to feel your touch, 

In tenderness that blows, felt in the breeze, 

I did shout on a ridge that you are such, 

And every echo shouting back agrees; 

I look up to the blue to sense your sight, 

As evening gust brings scents to tell you’re near, 

You came with steps so soft as dreams in flight, 

Or else, as breath that wafted on my ear; 

But you are on an isle so far away; 

Know what I might, in desperation do: 

I'll scoop in buckets waters of your sea, 

To make dry land to get across to you; 

…….Reveries in lieu of reality,       

…….Has only  my sanity as casualty.

This is of a sane man, who has been driven to insanity by the beauty of his lover. Love is like a deep well, that not matter how much you drink from, you can never quench your thirst. You've painted her so beautifully, and the metaphors and imagery were very vivid. It's an eloquent piece, I have to admit. Thanks for sharing.

Another so very beautiful sonnet, that is amazing with it's flow,
and the thoughts set my heart aglow....and may I add to you, Bravo.
Also, a beautiful and serene picture added. Too bad it's about
"sweet nothings"......or having no topic to write about! It would
definitely be a beautiful sonnet to someone! ♥.......wow......

Thanks for such perceptions, DeeZire. The picture was borrowed from the album of my friend, Yesu Ben. Not having a definite someone to write for, it makes its generality fitted for everyone else.

The poem is amazing my friend.
"As evening gust brings scents to tell you’re near,
You came with steps so soft as dreams in flight, "
The above are true. I like how you describe want an emotion. No weakness in the outstanding poetry.

Thanks John. This is just a "sweet nothings" musing when I do not have a topic to write about.
