A love poem...

 

Down through the Alps, immortal, standing high

Whose feathers are the clouds of passing days

And whose sweet bosoms touch the milky sky

And whose faint breaths birth thick and gentle haze;

Upon the hills and valleys, laced with white

And brushed by bonnets of the passing clouds

There is beneath the mounts, a lovely sight:

Which please all mortal eyes: soft daisy crowds.

Of all unearthly, flowery June treasure

Of all the decors and bouquets of spring

Perchance, the fairest, by all equal measure

Yon daisies, in the moist glades, lingering

    And there where such soft blossoms dance and play

    Are you and I upon a summer day

Ah, a perfect sonnet! There is nothing I have to criticize here. Every word is meticulously crafted, every sound is chiselled to perfection. This truly reminds me of Wordsworth. There are very few poems of this day that can even remotely attain that status, so I think this poem deserves all the accolades it gets. I cannot quote any lines as my favourite as they all are so very good!
