Stars and grappling hooks (sonnet)

by Kasie   Jan 10, 2017


The stars could never shine more bright than you,

For you my love, are brighter than the skies.

More lovely than the oceans tides of blue,

Enamored by the sparkle in your eyes.

Beneath the starlit sky, to me you look,

You hypnotize me with your stunning charm.

Your gravity is like a grappling hook,

Enraptured by your love, I'm left unarmed.

Entranced by you, my shining star, my love.

Your incandescent love illuminates,

And lights the never-ending stars above.

For this is what your endless love elates.

~~~

Your love is like the starlit sky at night,

An endless sea of everything that's bright.

~~~

      Thank you. I still have much to learn, but it's not as intimidating as it looks. My advice is to never stop trying and I am positive that you can do it too.

    Well done, Kasie.

    I am glad Ben steered you in the right direction. After all, those seas can be tricky to define; like a still sea on a clear day.

    Great title :O)

      Thank you. Like I stated before, you and Ben have helped me a lot when it comes to these. Ben helped pick out the title, I seem to have a little trouble coming up with creative titles.

    Kasie,

    I have read over this and can conclusively say that it is written in iambic pentameter throughout; you've mastered this difficult technique very quickly.

    As to the title you weren't sure of, what about something like 'stars and grappling hooks'. It just struck me as a bit different.
    Entirely up to you.

    All the best,

    Ben
