By Thy Infinity

Sonnet — An Invocation to The Master #81

Wither this sweep of storms raging
Through life’s fragile fields unending,
Wave upon restless waves descend
Shaking our hearts by times malformed.

Is there not precious hue in each flower,
A radiance issuing from joy’s endeavour?
Why must uncouth blemish upon it fall,
Art Thou not the preserver of all?

Make for these lives shielded room
Safe from the alarm of all harm. 
In peace and harmony as prevailing law
Ensure their days unvisited by flaw.

In each flower Thou art too,
By Thy infinity may all be good and true.

Am Bereft

Am Bereft

Sonnet — Daily Poetry for The Master of Works #43

I hoped to craft Thee a brilliant ode
Full of beauty and delicate subtlety,
Mined from deepest recesses of mind
And crafted in an adoring heart devoutly.

I hoped it would stand in the careless hours
Like a column of fire reaching to Thy feet,
Words all alive that would meekly caress
All imprints of Thy tread by the heavenly seat.

But a soundless word and silent song
Is all I bring Thee at the moonlit hour,
Receive then this my shadow offering
Cobbled by a feeble will together.

Alas, am bereft of riches and destituted by the muses,
In lieu I offer my heart for Thy habitat through the ages.
