Love In the moonlight I see your sparkling face
In the moonlight I see your sparkling face
I recollect yours such a charming smile
Where can anyone love so tender ever trace
Except in your romance all my while
The candle light flickers tonight
All fire burns me out like a forest
But still I will keep it aright
When I think of you being so modest
Champagne we shall have so free
All will also enjoy some water of coconut
Candy will be served along with tea
For those who love to have salted peanut
Love and my heart shall rejoice
Tenderness and tears would be your choice

An appealing piece
indeed. Yet the form of the sonnet is very strict re meter.

Hi loved
the thing about sonnets is the number count of syllable in each line is supposed to be the same. This is the main reason I stopped trying to write them. This is a nice poem but from my understanding it's not a sonnet
