Happy Valentine's Day, TBT! :-)
Feb. 14th, 2012 04:53 am....This is called 'speed sonnetry'. Not to be confused with 'speed dating', although they are very similar concepts. You meet for a very short amount of time with a concept which you have to impart as much impression as possible as clearly as possible, while maintaining a certain amount of charm and wit.
.....Well, I tried. :-) And it was for TBT on a Valentines Day. :-) And it was done in under an hour.
As Venus rising from divine embrace,
A beauteous gem glimmering on high.
All else is dim and pale next to her grace.
The creatures of light on her do draw nigh.
I gaze in wonder at this wondrous light.
My heart a welcome captive in love's grasp.
My memory forever etched with sight.
Her ev'ry curve cause my lungs to gasp.
As time flows swiftly towards eternity.
Its passage only increases the love.
And gazing on this face of majesty.
Shows God's great presence with gifts from above.
To cherish this treasure is my desire.
As beauty quenches my heart with sweet fire.
.....Happy Valentine's Day, TBT. You are definitely my favoritist Valentine of all. :-)
.....Love, Aaron.
