I am often inspired by Shakespeare and you wrote a fine sonnet based on the depth of emotion you felt here Mary. I love the thought that life is an endless sweet beginning. Your poem ended on a high and I enjoyed the ride home with the moon, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

I really like the nostalgic tone of this sonnet, Mary, commemorating that first walk together in the moonlight a couple had that is fondly remembered years later. I especially like how you describe their conversation in stanza two. And I applaud your flawless meter. Rod

When two lovers are together, aimless walking also become so meaningful. Since the heart is open , it adds a layer of shining light to even the most mundane things.
