Sonnet IV – Time

A way to look at life, death, and time...

A storm took a Nightingale from the sky,

It tumbled on an oak and its wings broke,

But it hid amid leaves till time passed by,

As its wings healed and flew off the Holm oak.

 

A blizzard blew hard inside a wolf’s eye

And the frozen tears shrouded its blurred sight

But it rested and died as time got by

And its cold fur glittered with stars at night

 

Time could be fatal, and could be healing

The mighty from trivial blows might wither

Yet from calamities survives the weakling

And none would live upon this earth forever

 

Our names are written on the note of death

And he’s deceiving, so treasure each breath

I melt when I read a wonderful sonnet.

Like a cotton made skirt, soft and wonderfully hemmed.

"A blizzard blew hard inside a wolf’s eye"

[Sam Gregory]

wtf? I wrote another sentence sayin I liked it etc and that its a good sonnet lol. I dont think blur sight makes sense tho, could be wrong

[Adam Lebzo -RonninWarrior-]

that explains it!
About the blur sight...
When you walk through a heavy blizzard, it forces tears from your eyes, and that blizzard was so cold, it froze those tears thus blured the wolf's vision
Made sense? :)

[Sam Gregory]

Then surely it should be blurred sight, and not blur sight? :)

[Adam Lebzo -RonninWarrior-]

oh! my bad... Thanks for pointing that out

[Sam Gregory]
