Flourished Flower (Sonnet)
Contempt grows this precious dainty love piece
For it may not flourish upon this foul
But yet desired, charming nightfall of Thoth
O'Thee! present wisdom and purity !
These roots may never reach thine white heavens
Which to extent of mercy thou provide !
This desolate and punctured brittle soul!
May thou holiness alter these sinned roots
Begone ! Thou vile roots ! Let this beauty shine !
Now present faith, ever brighter than stars
This liberate love piece, may grow of thine
Nurturing, and blossomed upheld guidance
O'er rests the picturesque new flower
As hope will revive these gleaming petals
