Thus, Love Speaks
Form: Raven’s Rovi Sonnet 49
What are these words that speak of love so true
In the wilderness of our busy world
The wild words of love speak to me and you
That power between us was never weak
For our love would not shrink into silence
Unashamed the passion fire ours to seek
Enshrined in perfect trust and with patience
A love expressed with a softly kissed cheek
In soulful stillness a moment with you
As in your hair, my fingers gently curled
Just before patience became impatience
Lustful desire swept through our throbbing veins
Between delights and the sweet, pleasured pain
Convulsive raptures of your kiss remain
