What a marvelous feat to accomplish-A compound sonnet.
Well compiled and written and flows perfectly throughout in iambic pentameter.
I really enjoyed the style and rhythm of the poem and I appreciate the sheer cleverness of writing in iambic pentameter and rhyming for 28 lines.

Haven't got a 6 left, Treischel, this poem in lovely. Yes, we need the sun and moon, they shape our everyday lives with their push and pull. So subtly done, we don't notice how much we depend on these amazing cosmos to give us and our planet, life. Excellent writing, and a pleasure to read. xsx Sandra.

Hi, Treischel,
This is an excellent double sonnet written with good iambic pentameter and good rhyme in the form's required rhyme scheme. I enjoyed this one.

A great compound sonnet to serenade the day and night in the celestial forces that rule.
The day and night can be pleasant as the rhythm of life unfolded and unfurled.
In any good or bad day, the moon and the sun will bring meaning to our daily lives if we care to look for it somewhere in the undisclosed world we dwell.
Great write and well penned.
cheerio, Ritchie. :))

Hi Treischel,

Dang, I wish I had a six for this amazing poem. I have never heard of a compound sonnet but you have done a stellar job with this one. Your iambic pentameter is spot on, the rhyming perfect, each line has been carefully composed and I love the theme. Well done, ****** chey

Nice photo by you that complements your poems so well. This compound Sonnet seems to be even more difficult than the English one. The best is written in the ending quatrains.

A beautiful poem observing the world around us. Particularly the Sun moon and the planets. There is nothing more spiritual in my opinion observing the night sky and the Sunrise, and Sunsets. Your poem is very well rhymed, I never heard of a compound sonnet, I did not see it in poetry dances. so I am learning. I congratulate you your photograph, easy known you like your photography.

Well done. Mary

    Thank you Mary, I hadn't heard of one either until I reviewed one from Gungalo.

I completely enjoyed this one. As I read the poem and got into the form, I actually thought of Gungalo. She is an amazing poet and uses so many different forms in her writes. I was not at all surprised that the inspiration came from her. Tom, you did an outstanding job. It was an easy read to follow and comprehend, children at play, projects getting done, night or day , hours passing without delay. :-) Carolyn
