Sonnet 51
Shall you compare me to the richest man?
Who looks so simple and with glitters none
I will be richer than him to extents
That my content is not of his contents
I wear my garments with bright ornaments
Each body cell prides rare accouterments
I fear nothing to lose; no wealth nor state
And move around so free towards my fate
I will be happy with my happiness
Truly be sad in sadness I confess
What difference when he has the most sum
Myself so happy to afford mere rum
He may purchase a golden tomb when dead
Yet still no wealth can warm death’s cold dark bed
Sonnet 52
Do not be sad, nothing is worry-worth
Be first, be second, be last or be fourth
You have a life, be happy; that is first
Unknowing it makes you grieve and feel cursed
Life is right feeling in each time to see
Be rich or poor; right attitude to be
If a rich man can have a peace of mind
No reason that a poor man cannot find
Life is mere breathing, smile or either frown
All feet step on the same ground; up or down
It is all in the mind that holds the trick
At pinkest health, you think that you are sick
From now on you are rich that you read this
And read this deeper is more wealth and bliss
Sonnet 53
If I am rich, what differs to be poor
Will I not use a ladder or a door?
To flaunt to men that I am big and high
What difference to slowly sail or fly
When life is winding river, bends at bend
No exempts, all men surely reach the end
To rush or lag; the journey will not change
All views are given, you cannot arrange
No one is favored; this to understand
No better reason; smarter mind or hand
For many smarter minds and hands did fail
Some simple men in dark nooks find the grail
Count how many rich and how many poor
Your life depends on your sail; where you moor
Sonnet 54
Where is your word, I etched it on this stone
Be father to the son that you have known
Your word is like an offspring you begot
What you say you must do, omit do not
Your character is measured by your words
Integrity true faithfulness affords
Committing me a pledge like life I hold
Until your promise died as I am told
The air is witness when you said your oath
Once enthusiastic, now you become loath
To leave me single light, my only hope
And killed the light, in darkness now I grope
Word is like air, without it you will die
Be not dead man that I cannot rely
Sonnet 55
What wisdom or madness made my hand write
These lovely sonnets that are sounding right
The happiness felt when I play with words
Is more than anything that world affords
I have no wealth and riches that I own
Now only my sweet mind that I have known
If things I see are mere words in the mind
Then I own all things; nothing wished to find
Words comfort me when the world disowns me
All eyes misunderstand the things they see
I choose the words to be with me each day
To think, to smile, to write, to pray, to say
Thank God for words who are a faithful friend
When dead, I want my soul and words ascend!
Sonnet 56
Words do before existence, first exist
Logics in words are what concepts consist
Guiding creation in nature of things
From atom to the universe; word brings
The form and substance on how things to be
It is first thought in words before eyes see
God thinks and use His words to mark His plans
To finite dust or to heaven’s expanse
To rule the moon and sun and stars to shine
Words make them stay in each orbital line
Words are unspoken, but yet they are there
The laws of nature are words everywhere
The essence of creation is in words
God’s Word is Word of words; the Lord of lords
Sonnet 57
I love you still, my love I can not kill
For love is strong if it is my heart’s will
How can I cease to feel the beautiful?
The true, the good and love the wonderful?
I know it is ambitious to love you
However, I will swear my love is true
For you are worthy, my love to commit
Love kills me softly this I will admit
For even love is said, it stays unsaid
I write my love and even then unread
How can I love you so you love me back?
I give you all my heart, what do I lack?
Your love is my penultimate desire
Give me your love and you will quench my fire
Sonnet 58
Preserve your youth with this immortal rhyme
True admiration that will last through time
The image of your handsome face remains
The purity of youth that nothing stains
Your stature is like mountain to compare
Magnificently rising up the air
Astound the heart to marvel and exclaim
Your physique adds the glory to your name
Your character so gallant and so bold
Your word is honor that you always hold
A well-built body in a well-sound mind
Not easy to forget and hard to find
These verses shall remember you through time
So long as verses live as well as rhyme
Sonnet 59
O Love, to me you are so marvelous!
Like raging sea, sweetly tempestuous
Toss feelings from the abyss to the sky
You touch the deepest deep and highest high
Your breeze blows through my soul with fearsome might
Let reasons and pure feelings in great fight
Bring mind and heart into such wonderment
Strong gusts that make all forest trees be bent
Nothing can stand against your power’s strength
Your awesome magnitude of height and length
That brings those who oppose to no defense
Like wrath, love always makes me lose my sense
Love is so great, that nothing measures it
Although immense, the heart will always fit
Sonnet 60
Whom should I blame when heart does fall in love?
Is it the heart below or mind above?
Is it mere reason or mere feeling known?
Is it affection or poor judgment shown?
The heart loves like there is no other day
That pours itself more than the words can say
Cascades and rushes like the flowing stream
To find its own way as if in a dream
And wash away all obstacles that blocked
Against the ebbs and tides, success is locked
With challenges, commitment is bestowed
When the stream bends is where more love is flowed
Love flows like water, to surpass all things
Blame none, instead enjoy what good love brings
Sonnet 61
This feeling is not felt for thousand years
To feel how heart loves and feel how mind fears
The heart that stays believing to its hope
The mind who loves to balance on thin rope
The joy of longing when chance will relieve
A spur of kindness you reserve to give
Maybe beyond no reason can attest
But bow to pure humanity's behest
Appease the mind, its calculating pace
Towards indulgent bliss, life's happy days
Is to know truly greater than to feel?
Can mind think of a love so true and real?
For thinking is to mind and feeling, heart If you give me one day with you to spend That day will be of happiness no end I bring to you as presents glorious deeds Inspired by you, you see my life succeeds You are the grand reward in life to yearn To hold you and deserve you I must earn Your hand to touch, like royal scepter feel Gaze at your face, before king’s crown I kneel Achieve such wondrous things for you great man Whose chivalry is not compared to one You are alone in greatness that I see To be with you will make the best of me You are the cause of great things that I make By doing great, it is for my love’s sake I wish I am the wind to kiss your face To dry and cool your forehead in warm days To whisper happy music in your ears To soothe your heart and wipe away your tears I wish I am the sun to shine my light To give you warmth and comfort in the night To share my fire to burn deep in your heart To be with you and always be a part I wish I am the water to refresh To quench your thirst and out exhaustion thresh To wash away the weariness you have To rain on you like dewdrops from above For wishing of my best is all I can Yet still I wish for you my dearest man
Differing things form perfectly one part
Sonnet 62
His name is Handsome, this verse is for him
To find a dashing man like him is slim
One in a trillion, that is how he is
World is mere billion people now to miss
How admiration is fixed to this man?
In my sharp time, bright mind and wisdom's span
He is just pleasing for the sight to see
Beholdened eyes once in eternity
Admire him totally both inside out
Love to know him, know to love him; no doubt
Simplicity has its complexity
Rough, raw, authentic, striking rarity
Admiring him can not even suffice
Love stands unravished only to entice
Sonnet 63
How could I stop from writing poetry?
Gazing at you, your form and symmetry
Your stunning manhood that provokes the sense
Incite the earthly passion and love, thence
Seek words to capture the joy to possess
Immortalize in verses and express
Fulfillment that can not be touched and owned
Only the heart with verses joy is loaned
Desire is fire that is unquenchable
Burns love a fuel inexhaustible
Describe in words a love that can not be
Thrust wisdom even in wild fantasy
I can not love you so I will just write
Blaze only words not the heart to ignite
Sonnet 64
Receive my love and take all what you can
If you refuse, then I inherit none
My love is my whole world, all that I am
To have you is my dream and to become
For what it means if I have everything
To own unmeasured wealth that riches bring
Get things I want and want things that I get
Into your destiny, heart yearns to set
To seek you is to give all that I have
To hold you is to offer all my love
For truly I have nothing without you
You make things wonderful, you make things new
Life is best lived in living loving you
Without you is without life, that is true!
Sonnet 65
If you will ask me how great is my love
It touches depths below and heights above
Its greatness encompasses everything
Providing comfort and sweet harboring
Affection strikes the ocean of the heart
Retrieves the pearl, to crown love's lofty art
Moves emperors to conquests in vast lengths
Love conquers all with everlasting strengths
Pursues what seems to be impossible
Persists and makes all things believable
No threats and hindrances keep love from goal
Love is felt by the body and the soul
My love remains through ages, time and space
If you love back, it is my perfect grace
Sonnet 66
Sonnet 68
I write this verse so to immortalize If beauty is the reason to exist Then you exist for beauty, not the least An image of a lady to adore I seek you once and seek you more and more Your charms are sweetly incomparable All girls aligned, there you shine above all! Your smiles, like blooming flowers of the field Your lovely face, the stately clouds do shield The scars of love will leave your heart unscarred Rise like white lotus, purity unmarred Years come to make you more adorable Love makes you lovelier, more lovable These verses prove the beauty that you show You are more beautiful, more than I know A water drop stirs tempest in my soul The mind so wonderful, the awe at best Lowest, highest; darkest, brightest; hell, crest Fire touched me, so hot like the burning sun The bold lips of a handsome gentleman Blazed my heart and my soul and this is love Burns from my feet up to my head above The pyre of youth consumes me with your breath Rage as forever like there is no death Your cheek meets mine as red as flaming coal Desire you from the abyss of my soul Into you is my heaven with your kiss Your mist into my pallet is sweet bliss Pressed tightly with your passionate embrace There is no room for doubt, love filled all space Your kiss immersed me into depthless joy You vanquished me like heroes vanquished Troy Your lips touched my lips like eternity Merge your breath with my breath and into me Your breath is fire that bursts from earth’s deep core I seek to burn, O burn me more and more! Eternity, my lips have touched its edge All passions known, stripped of pretentious hedge Dip soul into the ocean universe Defy the gods, subdue the heaven’s curse Your grip is buried in my flesh to bleed My body wounds, my joy is never hid Devour my senses into heaven’s tomb You laid me in the bosom of your womb Dear man, how angels vied to steal your kiss! You kissed me once, forever I will miss
That moment that remained to tantalize
My mind that night as if it were a dream
I met Adonis* so true you did seem
I held your face those marbles came to life
The pillar deities in past ages rife
Stood as great monuments that awed my heart
Great sculptors dreamed to carve the living art
You were with me, that time came to stand still
And my immortal longing you did fill
That sky, those stars, the trees, that night and me
Were witness to you and eternity
You came to me once, I wish twice or more
Our time is always better than before
*Adonis - most handsome man in Greek mythology
Sonnet 69
Sonnet 70
To whisk me a wild ride from pole to pole
Disintegarate my cell away each bit
And sprinkle up to heaven, down to pit
Rule everywhere, my mind becomes the space
Expand with time, cycling an endless race
Contain all possibilities unthought
Myself the greatest enemy I fought
I am a king in solitary, reigned
With armies, empires, conquests I have feigned
The happiness of feeling is the cause
At the same time become both slave and boss
Sonnet 71
I will not throw a rock in the calm sea
Prevent the ripples to come back to me
The placid surface is glass to my view
Let it break with the wind, not me nor you
Its depth is unknown and its wide extent
Not dive into it lest I will repent
The rocks beneath more deadly than deceits
The tricks of men kill, their endless conceits
For mystery tempts with its depth unshown
Know the unknown; in knowing danger drawn
Pure innocence is purely happiness
The less I know is hence I fear the less
The sea is peaceful just my eyes to see
Its great travails are not for you and me
Sonnet 72
For I do not know why I love so much
More than to know, to feel, to think, to touch
You cause me to desire beyond my grips
The words remained unspoken in my lips
No thoughts describe the gravity I feel
The water from the sea has none to spill
Though how filled I am of yourself; content
Is never satisfied by pure intent
Affection deepens, each time for you spare
Love stripped of pride, now emptied and left bare
Comes back again like spring with more to give
Love is the only cause for me to live
To love you is true love and all I know
To lift you up and be your strength below
