What an amazing effort you have penned. It is remarkable and riveting. I can relate to many of your words of love and contentment. "Contentment comes to those who knew it would."
I love that line.

Amazing effort with this writing... I love how you write about quiet and the portals that you have to go through and I feel that anyone could identify with some part of this wonderful poem... It has a good flow. I think you write with emotion and give good description all through your poem.
Well done!

This work has reached the exceptional level

I am breathless! You have accomplished a wonder. It is not easy to do. You have the 14 lines, iambic pentameter (lines with 10 syllables). Some sonnets rhyme schemes are abab, cdcd, efef and gg. I am glad you stuck with the abab scheme. I hope I am right for I tried to read it carefully.

This love sonnet says much. Thanks for writing it. B.anderson

Top marks how eloquently announced and to write it in 5hrs. self observation as a canvas which you paint so humble though the vision was demanding on the reader,when you were deep in though so was I well done.

Good day or evening to you Gungalo
I can see peace within your soul and mind when you composed your 15 sonnets. very relaxing to read,

Once I got going I didn't even notice the length.

Quite lengthy but well worth the read. I have never written one of this type but you surely made it look easy. I think the 13th sonnet seemed to fit me the most. I went back and read that one again.

Bravo!

You time and effort were well spent.

Such a lovely, peaceful write ... almost a whisper on the wind.

I especially loved your closing lines:In dreams I share and fly in arms of love,

such music sweet in stillness wafts on high;

as through the universe so far above

in open arms that welcome my soft sigh.

Its promise now to me is understood,

contentment comes to those who knew it would.

FYI: Had a bit of a hard time reading part of it ... for some of it the words ran over your profile. Had to highlight them to read them.

A very long read Gungalo and that's true, but by the time I had read the first sonnet I was hooked. You see I enjoy the classics and to me this reflects the classical write.
An enjoyable read in solitude. Eric
