Sonnet For a Dream


In early morning when I first awake I feel the dew of sorrow on my brow I rise and breathe in sunshine and heart ache Longing to be there with you right now But how should someone small and meek as me Be able to afford your lavish graces? I hope while you're away you take your leave Of those who look upon the world with darkened faces I shrink away at times because I know That my love remains until the very day I in your arms a humble violet grow And hear the beauty of three words you say And yet I've felt fate whisper in my ear "He shall take you in His arms and hold you near."
