Far too pretentious and mundane. The flowery and archaic language is pedantic. Not meant for current times. No concrete images or specifics. Nothing that allows me to see, hear, taste, or touch what usually makes people happy.

Wow! :) This is certainly a very graceful and soothing offering for this contest -- makes the reader want to go pull one of those old poetry books off the shelf and 'get lost'! ;) :) Thanx for sharing and best of luck in the contest! :)

    Thank you Yvette! When I read a well written sonnet I kind of do a fist pump with a smile. lol I love your reference to pulling those old poetry books off the shelf and get lost. This is a lovely review and appreciate your time and all those stars. Thank you!

Dear Mystery Poet,

I find your poem a wee bit amusing. I think, perhaps, you may be referring to your own sonnets??? Because I know that the sonnets we find on FanStory may not always offere such peace and beauty. hehehe

I know, I know - I'm being awfully mean. I guess I woke up that way this morning. So sorry. Just a chuckle.

One note, if I may?
1.) Sweet stanzas (calm) the mind in soft embrace,

Good luck!

    Yes, I agree. I don't find many sonnets (on here) that make me feel like this. lol Thanks for this review. Nice catch on the 'calm'. I appreciate your time and comments. Thank you.
