Knight's Garden
















morning  dew touches moist lips a  sweet  kiss
lost  in  lush  gardens, poets  dare  to  dream 
thick  maze  of  words ,  finding   heavenly   bliss 
dancing  under  sunlight, riding moon beams
  
pleasurable  rose  scent , magical  spell 
drifting  in  thoughts,  muse  of  lyrical  song
words   spoken  in tongue,  here our  spirit  dwells
with  you, I've  found  a  new  place  to  belong 

seeking   release  in a fountain of  love 
exploring the pathways  from  here  to  there 
syllables  take   flight  on  wings of a dove
supporting each other ,  showing  we  care 

in a knight's garden we discover art
singing to the rhythmic beat of our heart

  1. Now that is sure a party to join in on indeed, own beat taking seed. A place to belong and a love that's strong, all one needs, well and maybe some dough to stay there haha

  12. Impressed with the message unhindered by the sonnet form. I was into the second stanza before I realized the form; a kudo for cleverness for sure. So lovely the fellowship we have nurtured, reaching to every quadrangle of this planet, & even cooler that so many of us want to sustain it year after year.
