Sonnet On Love 1 (Petrarchan Sonnet)

Rating: 3.5


As I sit silently across this room
A sweet nostalgic moment comes to mind
About a love I cannot leave behind
'Twas a place where it used to be my home
Those years and good times where I always roam
A glimpse of her face so lovely at sight
Love unequalled and never will I find
I recall those sleepless nights in my room
And to think of her fairness constantly
No matter how the years passed and unwind
Still I reminisced and loved her beauty
Just her name! ! my heart reacts in a bind
This poem's made to refresh her memory
And ease the solitude and misery...

Thank you Sandi, as ever...Petrarchan is a 14 line poem,10 syllables/line, that rhymes in lines (1-4-5-8) , (2-3-6-7) 9-11 10-12 and 11-14. An old form of poetry.

...Just her name! ! my heart reacts in a bind... Bound up in love, sweet bindings, welcome constraints, prison embraced, freedom erased yet enjoyed in love. Beautiful, delicate and light as usual. What is a Petrarchan Sonnet?
