The Eternal Fool

a Sonnet written for a creative writing class turned into something which is much more meaningful

To whom is thy hearts beauty given true,

 

Whose beauty is greater than that of

 

Any meandering streams deepest blue,

 

Agleam with sunlight which is thy blue love,

 

Release thy self from thine constant sorrow,

 

Release Past unfit of such divinity,

 

And when finished, my heart you may borrow,

 

I only ask its held infinitely,

 

With sorrow substituted by much joy,

 

Only good comes from this mended future,

 

And from happiness, be born a boy,

 

If none other, this I can assure,

 

Suspended by strings of love, a jewel,

 

For thee, I shall be an Eternal Fool.

'Suspended by strings of love a jewel, For the, I shall be an eternal fool.' - What an elegant piece of writing. You have an amazing talent- this intricate piece touched my heart. & I truly enjoyed the Shakespearean style.

'Release thy self from thine constant sorrow,
Release Past unfit of such divinity,
And when finished, my heart you may borrow,'

Pure brilliance- I really love this piece. Thank you for sharing your work.

Thank you, I'm pretty sure this is my strongest work thus far, and is by far my favorite, I'm glad you like it so much, I actually got emotional myself while writing it, and then reading it aloud in front of a group, again thank you

I had to read it several times- and then read it to a friend... ;) It really is a wonderfully written piece.

thank you very much

Well done! I too have tried to walk in the footsteps of sonnet writers. It is a slippery slope indeed. Sometime people just don't get what it was that you were going for...for me that ok though...I think one should be able to take away what they want form any of my works. Again Well done! :)

an artist isn't in the rite if he doesn't find that of himself that doesn't want to be found, not saying i have, were all striving, take a walk, dont eat, maybe dont sleep a couple nights, find yourself insane and you will find the center of your expression
ya got potential
