the way youve written about this man mkes it clear that he means a lot to you and lights up your life. the rhyme and metre flow naturally and help to give the image depth.
and i especially like the line 'in song or silence', it reminds me of wedding vows, always looking at both sides of something and saying you'll love then either way

    Gemma, yes, he does mean a lot. I never looked at it that way: the wedding vows. Very nice! Thank you for your very kind review and lovely compliments. Always appreciated, Sue

I loved everyword written here and your art work was superb.
A very close connection you have with your muse. Your words written were very descriptive and beautiful. Your words were words of truth, love and silence.

I loved every word.

This one is a nice portrait and a expression of your gratitude/love for your muse. It's and ode and an homage. I think the meter was very good and the rhymes creative. When I reviewed just the end words of each line going down, I found not a mundane word in the bunch. That's a sure sign that care and skill were applied. Adam

i thought this was a great sonnet, it read really beautifully, with great flow, and nice upbeat, uplifting tone to the language, the rhyme scheme and meter all seemed to fit perfectly together. the language was quite elegant, yet contemporary, which yielded a great effect of being relevent and timeless at the same time, much like love itself.

This is beautiful. I commend your attempt at writing a sonnet, as I have tried but it just does not want to come out that way. Great meter, flow, and rhyme.

You speak in song, in longing tones, a plea
To music written, solely ours to share.
With voices coupled, sharing harmony
A chorus singing softly as in prayer


Wow, I love this and feel you've dipped into the same ink well I have. This is a gorgeous piece of finely written verse. Not only is the poem lovely but so are you. Your new photo is beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

You have a gift.

Hi Sue....I love sonnets and this one is excellent. It is very apt to write about your muse in the form of a sonnet. I think they are the purest form of all poetry forms. A good story line and impeccable rhyme makes this a pleasure to read. Good luck in the voting booth...blessings....chey
