Rating: 5.0

The days, invariably, quickly pass.
Natures care not to amend tiresome hours
Hiding, lurking, sleeping. Casting away
From mortal shores. Trespassing. Always gray.

I like this part. Preservation Of the soul in brilliant tapestries needs Flowering crescendos, Contrasts well with 'monsters from colorless years'.

Wonderful sonnet, very deep and profound. I love how you've packed so much in, it takes more than a couple of reads to truly appreciate. Love the close-out too. HG: -) xx

The writing of sonnets tests the poet's mettle. But you have written another one that is more than worthy of a ten. I admire your technique. Beautiful.No more needs to be said. Warmest regards, Sandra

This one is so dark. I can hear Goreski's Symphony of Sorrowful Songs. I used it once to accompany a children's dance performance set in a world where all the colour had been drained and everything was grey. You're right, lack of colour attracts mortality. Hope this one is not based on current personal despair, but rather on an inspired and imaginative creativity. I am impressed with the form of the piece. Sonnets are not easy things to write. You've excelled yourself. love, Allie xxxx
