sonnet +1

on yon cerulean sisters
this heart discovers a pumice in apiary
ring wings of inkling curtains
fleece cloud like fanlight
bird rainbows covert
of sky-light reeds
mauve descendants splay
velvet illumined concussions

lace of the swift attic brew
like dew temperamental befall
charlatans bruised in hope
pore fire hush mildewed
to sapphire cobbled wires
on stone shone gales flit
pearly heatwaves - this Dorset gift

Well, I'm going to read all of your work now. I'm still contemplating this one, and will likely continue to throughout the day. I can't offer critique as your skill level is far beyond mine.

Thank you for the write.

Brent.
