Sonnet Number One

Darling when I look into your eyes

 

Those swimming pools of blue and grey and white

 

It's like the world is standing at my side

 

With weapons down, ready to end the fight

 

 

 

Darling when you reach to hold my hand

 

When your left thumb beats a tattoo on mine

 

It's like the drums of war have ceased again

 

And all that's left is peace, and lots of time

 

 

 

Darling when your arms pull me in close

 

To swing me in a dance around your room

 

It’s like we’re young again and real time slows

 

And I’ve forgotten everything of gloom

 

 

 

But when the time does come that we must part

 

The drums begin again, and war restarts
