Sonnet Of Darkest LoveA Poem by JarrettMy first SonnetA love so still to be fragile and weak Yet stronger than any of which I know Like a cool hand upon feverish heat Or unto a crackling hearth from the snow Love becomes all that I seek and desire An obsession to haunt my very days Wrap soft words around bristle and wire To dull the pain caused by my human ways Life is precious, there is so little time To do the things that we know matter most So as I sit and write this little rhyme I embrace my love's long forgotten ghost Through the darkest of my long, lonely nights You comfort me in my unending plights © 2008 Jarrett |
