bold words - A Sonnet

Sonnet for N

Can you hear this o'er life's too noisy din?
Toasting her beauty while cup raises high.
Calls making it right though t'was no goodbye,
Or stretch beneath the stars heartbeat and grin,
Yes, sit awake watching you sleep again
On forehead places kiss and adds a sigh
Shows off, it's you in sweats or skirts to thigh
And pines wishing you with him e'er he's been.

Always want to hold hands with friends or not
Knows pretty isn't what makeup you've got
Reminds you this is one does deeply care
Feels best of luck to relish when they stare
One whose heart has begun a hum and purr
Elicits bold words to all, says "That's her!"

Someone had challenged me to try a Sonnet
so hear is my first and no nobler topic.

oh woman, glorious blend

almost home, scars and all life's delicate yet so robust - weapons stowed standing tall warrior trained emotion or princess drawn heart which to trust?

letting tears wash the grime of clashes, this fair maiden as the phoenix rising, high above devastation's ashes

poison of attacking serpent in memory causing most uncertain thoughts, prosecute the stalwart combatant yet known outwardly as nonchalant,

letting those with hardened ignorance walk away, with their airs and chide
the best now rise up, winning the day, where thoughts collide
This force serves light and darkness gives depth unknown in past, ability to fight or discover truth inside that will lead and last all loss becomes the foremost gain for letting go you're refreshed from pain
Let ultimate conquering release fair maiden as the dove,
while the princess warrior remains, if bidden, to come for conquest
glorious blend of strength, beauty, courage, wisdom, and love

Oh! Wildflower - Remix #7

oh wildflower, sacred child of immensity,
blossoming with no regard for beauty
giving vivid colour, fragrance freely
hiding nothing selfishly from view

no self adulation expressed by wildflower
gift of presence offered without reserve
remembered long, wildflower's gift replete
this frankness, boldness, and air both rich and sweet

Not actually a remix - but it was part of post done under the meme
called "Curious as a Cat" this was from week number 115
often the last part of the meme is to respond to a picture.
This was the response.

glimpsed, then touched

To discover great beauty is excitement mixed with purest joy.
------------------------

this face so kind to light's cooperative giving,
and then to find, light of beauty living,
ultimate grace between seen and viewed,
in day's brightness or evening shades subdued,
exchange takes place, charming interaction,
just glimpsing brings divine satisfaction,
confidence yields, budding expectation,
smiling invigorates, source of excitation,
beauty shared! purpose filled complete,
heart is touched, oh daring, extreme feat!
