Some March Sonnet

Appreciation post of the glory that graces this blog and has Birthday today.

Using Shakespeare's Sonnet Nr 26.

Lord of my love, to whom in vassalage

Thy merit hath my duty strongly knit,

To thee I send this written embassage,

To witness duty, not to show my wit.

Duty so great, which wit so poor as mine

May make seem bare, in wanting words to show it,

But that I hope some good conceit of thine

In thy soul’s thought, all naked, will bestow it.

Till whatsoever star that guides my moving

Points on me graciously with fair aspéct

And puts apparel on my tattered loving,

To show me worthy of thy sweet respect.

  Then may I dare to boast how I do love thee;

  Till then, not show my head where thou mayst prove me.
