Still my Heart oh Sweet Desire

Still my Heart oh Sweet Desire

A Poem by Will Neill
"

A short sonnet-about a lovers glance across a crowded room (or is it?)

"

Still my heart oh Sweet Desire

***********


Still my heart oh sweet desire

On crescent moon once passed

To hold thee tender in a moments grace

With others whom you may transpire


Concede not my wistful glance

For upon thee it choose to stay

Now in my dreams thus torment flows

Must Perpetuate my love to chance


Hath thou indulged my looks return

Or banished thoughts not gracious

Or worthy not concedes thy mind

An eternity I must endure to learn


That heavens glimpse to render seek

Momentarily lacks devoid behold

Then in a smile thy passion moves me

And courage lets my body speak


A sonnet By Will Neill-2013.
