It's nice to know another sonnet lover. I write mostly on the Shakespearean format. You did well on your poem.
And thy memory feeds my mind dying, Daring couple disclose, but don’t you tell, I must say Seema, you are a very skillful writer of poetry... I am impressed and amazed to read this lovely sonnet...
