Signs When we were brash of heart and full of play, embracing by the lake, svelte swans glided close to shore. Sensual scenes confided in earthy words, with kinky toys held sway - Myth’s lovers shrugged off portents of bleak fate: Leda’s raunchy trysts with Swan’s beak untrue! We missed the relished lane that leads anew to fancied nuptial chains we claimed could wait. Today I brawl beside the loathsome lake and trace a humbled heart with bloodstone dew on mirrored heavens… - entranced, hope renews, but drifts embodied in the knave swans’ wake. Old sylphine chants inform my soul that you in faith will not reverse my contrite state.

The Lord replied, my precious, precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.

Hi Syl
How lovely to read a sonnet from you - I haven't written one (or anything in R&M) for a while. You have done an excellent job! I think the only parts I stumbled were those mentioned by Jerry. I will mull this over and return when I can offer something substantial. Hope you are keeping well. Hugs Snow

Laugh loud & often - it's medicinal. Write from the heart - it's therapeutic. Beauty comes from within - the outer is just skin!
