My Queen,
How often have I pulled the links of love
only to find them rusted by disuse,
what harsh penalties does pain devise
for this fugitive in an outlaw's den,
but find satiety in thy words beloved,
bestowed on the privileged and the few
that fans my heated heart's reply,
if passion by thy victor, oppose me then!
if passion be thy victor, oppose me then! - - a line worthy of Shakespeare, my dear pirate! ! !
Susan, I hear tell Shakespeare will be responding to your words in a new sonnet, titled, It Ain't Worthy Of Me. I think its a pirate adventure. Lots of loving, backstabbing and swordfights. All kidding aside thank you for your delightful comment.
A passionate plea written in great poetic style and beauty! Well done, Captain.
Sandra, thank you! I shall keep the letters flowing so that one day I may win her heart!
