"The Melody of Forever"

Had we but world enough and time,
Existing through the twilight,
How ever could romance chime,
Never experiencing the crisp delight.

To deny a true day's worth,
All adventures deem untold.
Loveless melody dies with uncelestial earth,
Dare you continue with the bitter cold.

Of obscure apprehension to contrast,
Faulty love justified through blind sadness.
Carnate truth from love's regretful past;
Distill through time to parry difficult madness.

    Never love shall have world enough and time,
    For the beauty is lost if ends are not tied.

Author's Comments

For English this week, one of my questions had me responding to Robert Herrick's "To the Virgins, to Make Much of Time" in the form of prose or poetry. Wanting to challenge myself, I wrote the poem following the Shakespearean sonnet form. It is fourteen iambic pentameter lines divided into three quatrains and a couplet. The rhyme scheme is abab cdcd efef g g.

Hopefully I did this right, but if I didn't, I guess that's what the other side of commenting is for.

Take from it what you will, as the meaning I wrote for it may not be the meaning you find. Luckily, if someone takes any kind of meaning, I have created what is known as "art."
