Love Sonnet 67: Your Absence Caused Me So Much Remonstrance
Your absence caused me so much remonstrance,
As you left without hint of returning,
Which leaves as memento for remembrance,
A gap between us that keeps on yawning;
Yet distance favors roses of beauty,
When too far from eyes to perceive their thorn,
Or for moon, aloft, looking still pretty,
With unseen craters that its face has worn;
And how like the moon, you have ridden high,
Very far from reach, shrouded in mystic;
Would the moon still awe, if it leaves the sky,
And say, wallow down in south Pacific?
…….But then, for wine that anybody sips,
…….The cup needs be brought nearest to the lips.
