Sonnet - Ix (Ah, How Thy Beauty Steals The Gentle Dawn)

Rating: 5.0


Ah, how thy beauty steals the gentle dawn
And full compares to twilight's tender glow
Thou art as sweet as summer's golden corn
And pure as winter's soft untrodden snow
Thy loveliness is captured in thy smile
Within thine eyes, as diamonds set in gold
Forever then all hearts to thus beguile
O thou art yet so lovely to behold
Thy countenance delights the sorrowed heart
All melancholy thus to chase away
I pray thy beauty never shall depart
Forever to enchant throughout each day
….. Thou art a vision fixed within the soul
….. That I perchance forever shall extol

Valerie, i am not sure why this site will not allow me to comment but i have made many comments on your poetry and tried and tried and they will not post! Made a comment on this particular sonnet and tried four times to post it. If, by chance this gets though, know that i am trying to comment! ! ! ! ! !

Beauty to some is but a curse and yet it is a random gift as is each day, and in each our fragility should behoove us to savour each one come what may, and breathe and know that beauty is infused within in every way, and is as meliferous as this verse to smooth and guide its way.
