A Morning Sonnet32 total reviews
Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
This is truly beautiful, Janet! Your well-crafted sonnet skilfully reflects that eye-catching scene and rejoices in the glorious love you share. It evolves just like the morning sun, building up to your superb summation in the rhyming couplet which is utterly delightful. The only suggestion I'd make is to be careful about all the full stops which have the effect of obstructing an otherwise good flow. Better to leave out than overdo (I'm afraid I'm a guilty party myself). Foe example, the following could go: end of line 1, end of line 3, end of line 5, end of line 7, end of line 11, comma at the end of line 13. But well done, Janet! A strong entry. Good luck! Debbie

Thank you Debbie for your thoughtful review and excellent suggestions. I do get bogged down in the punctuation and tend to overdo it. Your kind suggestions were most welcome.

You're welcome, Janet. A pleasure.
Comment from Mark Jackson
That is very good a perfectly pleasant read. The rhyming all works (one and sun will sound better in accents other than mine). It looks to me that you have 10 syllables in each line although I sometimes struggle with this myself. Great 5 stars thanks for brightening up a dull.

Awww, what a sweet poem, Janet. You warmed the corners of my soul. This well crafted poem sings of beauty and love. Both morning and setting sun. That pretty much covers all the time between. Such a special love as this comes rarely.
Take care,
Rhonda

Comment from Jessica Wheeler
Janet, this is a lovely, well-written sonnet. I enjoyed every line, but that third quatrain blew me away. It speaks to the profound impact of love, making those fleeting moments feel eternal. You capture it so beautifully, using the day's cycle as a metaphor. Thank you for sharing!

Comment from Julie Helms
I appreciate your beautiful description of the morning sunrise. As a night owl, I never see it! This sonnet is a very-well done metaphor for the love of another. Your picture words were perfect to describe it.
Thank you for sharing such a joyous and warm piece of your heart. Julie.

Thank you Julie for the encouraging review and kind comments. My daughter is a night owl as well. But...you all see the night sky while I'm sound asleep. (smiling)

Comment from RodG
Love sonnets never get old for me. The Speaker here rejoices at seeing his lover near when the sun arises. He assures her she is "the one" in the morning and at dusk. Your iambic pentameter is flawless. Nicely done. Rod

This is a beautifully worded sonnet, and it is presented very beautifully. It flows very well when it is read aloud and I enjoyed listening to it. I wish you the very best with all of your writing, and good luck in the contest.

Comment from royowen
A beautifully written sonnet as an entry in this contest, we written in the chassis way of the Shakespearean sonnet. It all seems to be perfect in its delivery, the subject, the meaningful language, the rhyming and the flow, well done, blessings Roy
