Poems - Sonnet #2

Sonnet #2

by butterflyzrfree

Of beauties in the night moon I claim two,
Whose eyes shine when they open with fresh glow,
But in the night, while sleeping I note you,
Both have long eyelashes which seem to go
A-flutter in the night and one may note,
The smooth tight skin which all children display,
Fools me, for I forget how I will tote,
The two of you around for many a day.
One in each arm as I go to the store,
With constant comments "You have your hands full!"
My life chock full; it never was a bore,
As one or t'other turned to raging bull.

Grown now, I clean house and to my dog utter,
Still can recall how I watched those lashes flutter.

G'day Gail...
I probably don't read as many sonnets as I should Gail, and most of those that I do read tend to be love poems, but yours is a different love poem and I really enjoyed it thinking of you keeping two little 'tykes' in line.

not a conventional sonnet of love on balconies, and red roses, but a tale of love non the less. the love between a mother, and her children. - love and peace - paul.
