In Heavenly, Love Abiding, Sonnet Lxxv
Having felt the true awareness beauty brings
Here blindly corresponding' overdue,
Leaves sentiment for daydreams to review
Whilst pondering on thoughts of lovely things,
Like you, whose effervescence shines so bright,
As lily pads, complete me like the clouds
Where every need with perseverance, light
Shows godly, the intentions wrapped in shrouds
They're woven from your loveliness, delight!
Though death, may have composed the lullaby,
To sleep with you majestically laments
A heavenly abode, so commonsense
Can teach me what is beautiful, I die.
The remnants of a life-time play pretend
Conceived in new beginnings, not the end.
