Sonnet - Silent Autumn Love by William TeoSwift is the birth of silent autumn love
And yonder trees hidden a lovestruck lad
Secretly with a mask and velvet gloves
A silent love from one with eyes so sad
From whence he set his eyes on true love flow
A gift and curse of remembrance past
With eyes drown and heart in memories' woe
A mask unknown hiding his love uncast
Secretly he hoped her heart to unlocked
Then he wrote a sonnet of love unbound
A spell cast for her and her love he sought
From mist a mask and velvet gloves she found
Swift is a love born of an autumn night
To his autumn love a dance he invites 08/28/2002 Posted on 08/28/2002 Copyright © 2024 William Teo
