Sonnet - V (O Faithless Heart, What Sorrow Thou Dost Weave...) Poem by Valerie Dohren
Sonnet - V (O Faithless Heart, What Sorrow Thou Dost Weave...)
O faithless heart, what sorrow thou dost weave,
For those betrayed shall forthwith be undone -
As by thy will thou ever thus deceive,
And therefore with thy guile conceal the sun.
To serve thy love thus shall be deemed unjust
Against the one to whom thy heart be pledged -
Forsooth, such feelings be no more than lust
And shall depart as like a fledgling, fledged.
Be true, O heart, towards those e'er esteemed
Lest they take wing, so like thy fledgling muse -
For thus soft transport may ne'er be redeemed,
Nor linger that you shall e'er more abuse.
….. O faithless heart, do not your love betray
….. If thou would have thy sweetheart ever stay.
A heartfelt well written traditional poem Val, very rare these days.
Used as a dubious move a disingenuous simple smile can hide the truth behind a heart checkered with black guile. But White is pure as springtimes lure and will open up the gate and destroy the guile behind the smile of a black heart checkered mate.
Excellant-A rare gem that Shakespeare would surely envy, I kid you not.A love sonnet fot the ages. Flawless and ever so beautiful. That infernal code syatem is really fouling up my comments
In commemoration of Valentines Day a righteous Sonnet in traditional style.!
A poem affirming the need to maintain the fidelty in love, written in the style of the Elizabethan stalwarts of poets! ! A wonderful dedication for Valentine's day! !
