My Sonnet Aubade My song this morning as the sun rises The gentle breezes wake the songbirds tune I hope is gentle with no surprises. Their songbird chirps sweep across the sand dune The surf continues its endless motion To our feet encased in the squishy sand Always bringing evermore the ocean Life today is more than extremely grand Sweet memories fading from my old mind Bringing sweet thoughts and views unfurled just now Bring a smile to my face as they unwind Of our life together and yet somehow The undertow has me and down I go Never seen again outward I now flow Shakespearean Sonnet Aubade LeBuert 2012 |
