Love Sonnet XXI
You have more beauty than Helen of Troy
Like her, on this world you will leave your mark
You’ve more integrity than Joan of Arc
Your cunning behind ev’ry ploy
Cleopatra holds no candle to you
You’ve the whimsical love of a fairy
Thou art more pure than the virgin Mary
You stood strong through what tempests blew
Your Mind is on par with Madame Curie
And like her in her time, you have no peer
You are each beauty from all Shakespeare
Without invoking fate’s tragic fury
And it seems to me god finds need to bless
Us mortal men with you, our sweet goddess
Love Sonnet XXII
From the window I see rain, hear thunder
The demons in my life unleash their roar
This savage storm breaks my dreams asunder
All of my hopes dissolve in the down pour
Kept from the tempests by a window pane
If it shattered my life would flood with hate
Each misspent thought of you increases the strain
To dream of you is to tempt a harsh fate
My mind tells me you will never be mine
To see you walk away makes me suffer
I’d hurt if someone else’s hand clasped thine
Each thought is a crack in my clear buffer
All this, but with my heart I truly know
That the clouds will part and the sun will show
the first one follows an alternate rhyme scheme, but it's still technically a sonnet. this next poem is also not a sonnet, but a poem none the less. it's more or less true.
I had a dream where I was walking on the beach
Holding hands with an unclear silhouette
White sands and blue skies as far as the eye could reach
We sat together to watch the sun set
The sky turned pink, and the ocean forever blue
Just she and I looking across the sea
What a marvelous dream it was, it seemed so true
I should have known, such love is not for me
As on the beach I sat with that mystery maid
My entire life seemed consumed by pure joy
How was I to know this heavenly sight would fade
So I, so naïve, fell for fate’s cruel ploy
I shut my eyes, when I looked again she disappeared
One moment she’s there the next she’s gone
The sudden bitter pain through of loss through my mind seared
So through my dream’s night I cried on and on
When I awoke I realized it was just a dream
The loss of what’s not there, a phantom pain
I never knew who she was, things are not what they seem
And after that I never cried again

That's obviously you, pat. You're practically the only peron in the world who signs my blog anonymously. It seems that you and I have much in common according to that test, and it's not too far off.
I'm glad you enjoyed it snyder, i was thinking about what you said regarding sonnet XII when i wrote this one.
Tiffany, thanks for showing this to me, I'll be glad to take a peek at it when I get enough time.
Well that screws things up. Curses now I can never test how well you know me. Oh well. Actually that thing she mentioned might be something I'd check out.
Looks interesting. My low self esteme kicked in so I'm not going to joing. Whats the point I doubt I'm going to win. You should try though. I think the short story you did last year would do better then you sonnets.
