Sonnet 13: Attractive Annabel
2018, Olan L. Smith
Attractive Annabel, you're quite composed,
A poet's want discerns your bosom firm
Will tap your strength, and gifts of love transposed
A pardon comes in morning light, affirm
Those juxtaposed, in lands of nevermore―
Or once-upon-a-time of old, where we
Will not so ride the waves to once before
Imposing on his own bouquet to see.
Appreciate a deepened sea, explore,
Find it, the gorgeous Annabel's delight,
Alas, he hears a voice, an ocean roared,
Not once but twice, a voice whose songs excite.
A poet sings to Annabel this hymn
Of love, "Whose Tomb, Whose Mother Weeps for Him?"
