Thank you for your... interesting.... commentary, and the chance to post another sonnet.


Sonnet 08/05/06                                  MLIX

Is this the time to seek an avatar
Of muse, to give what she no longer cares
To offer me? Must heart find some new star
To guide to one who might lend hope repairs?
It hurts to lose her smile and know I'll hold
My muse no further time. Dream cannot keep
The tears from falling: Her silence has told
So much, with nothing. Even my hopes weep.
Yet, should I shadow seek when she is still
Within the reach of dream? She did not tell
That I could not think of her: Has heart will
To dream without hope, still under her spell?
It does not matter: How can heart replace
The one who lights dream with thought of her face?
