Sonnets
Let knight slay dragon for his young
maiden fair
Let prince climb tower to rescue damsel in
despare
Let Romeo hear Juliet from yonder balcony
call
My husband's endearments are more tender
than them all
First, sweet nothings he whispered in my
ear
Now nighttime sonnets fill our bedroom air
Evidence of his love and exhausting daily
labor
Every thought and effort for my comfort
and care
Sing on, sweet sonnets, beneath the
moonlit sky
Remind me of my loved one still laying by
my side
