Sonnet 71: On Love Poem by David Wood
Sonnet 71: On Love
We have all had that Romeo moment
When something we said to our love went wrong
And then eat humble pie in atonement
And to go off and rewrite loves sweet song.
Or when we said something to our sweet love
That took offence, and off they would go in pain;
We would call out to the heavens above
Or go off in a huff and to what gain.
T’was poison the potion Romeo took;
Guilt is our potion when our love is hurt,
Looking for the words to appease that look
Guarding our tongue we have to be alert.
Love can be so easily forsaken
When lovers messages are mistaken.
Commutation is the problem to the answer - 10CC, a fine sonnet.
A true lover willing to rectify the mistake, as soon as the realization dawns on him! A lover who regrets when he reaizes that he has hurt his beloved..... one who is willing to atone for the harsh words uttered! He is wise enough to understand....Love can be so easily forsaken When lovers messages are mistaken
an apt analogy is presented to love in Romeo-Juliet context, a new coinage of Romeo-moment...! ! !
A Great poem..Love can be so easily forsaken when lovers messages are mistaken..Very Beautiful message..Loved reading it.
Let words not be misunderstood. Lover must choose words thoughtfully and lover must interpret words positively. If problem arises try to rectify. Love is a fragile world indeed. Beautiful sonnet.
this is a lovely poem David. it reminds me of a quote which I have, , , not written by me. but one of my favorites. I will post it sometime. I know you will enjoy.
Closing in on Shakespeare with your sonnets and getting better all along.A sorry, dear- sometimes works. A close to life, truthful portrayal of love's inner actions

A great poem, I've been there many a time, all it takes is one wrong word. I wear the trousers but she says which ones.
