Worn this way

I crave the love

from your empty plate

from your slipper sock

caught on the gardens gate

like the lipstick smear

on the bathroom mirror

yesterdays dear kiss 

reflections worn like this

like moonlight saved in your heart-shaped locket

scribbled ways stay folded safe in my pocket

cherished hopes held in your last poem

nearest to my chest your words find home

sonnet wrapped ankles,my love worn this way

little songs,little songs...

pigeons fly away~

Little songs in little songs and so it should always be.

This is very good, I like how this dances around but keeps coming back to the subject of love. I love the phrasing in this. Exceptional. I really enjoyed this one today.

Sir Rossen, the love sonnet master. I love the lines...
