I Fix This Seal
English Sonnet
Rated:

by
Avg Rating: (4)
I fix this seal upon my heart today,
A heart so needing love yet ripe and full,
And send to you a message writ' in clay;
The highest courts of law could not annul.

I've labeled, 'Content special, please with speed
Deliver, heart enclosed, it's mine, it's real,'
With fervent hope it will not err indeed
And find instead a lessor love which steals.

For now the sun climbs up above the sill,
The light of which upon the wall has spread
From ceiling down across the floor and will,.
With urgent haste my hungry hearts bestead.

On water only sunshine dances bright---
A willing heart is quick to catch the light.
