Love Sonnet 141: 'seems Aphrodite Lavished You With Charms'



Seems Aphrodite lavished you with charms,
While your most loving heart may just suffice,
My Odyssey led home which your love warms,
Where Sirens can not waylay or entice;
As great waves had me shipwrecked like before,
With crests so high, they reach up to the sky
And valleys that expose the ocean floor;
I owe it to the gods; I did not die;
But graver obstacles greet me each day,
Beasts, monsters, and sheer loneliness or storms,
And yet the cause of my greatest dismay
Are ugly souls in beauteous of forms;
......And I now fear your beauty in excess,
......Might it enrage some jealous goddesses.
