Oh, Shakespeare my darling, to thee I do speak
of a time in my being, I wish we could meet
your words and passion, in me I do seek
the Sonnet in you, that I search within me
this play in my heart, that I keep for thee
the need to write poems, for thee to then read
I desire a lesson, just thee and me
answers on rhythm and rhyming, I need
I’m curious, your talent is so very clear
“hell is empty and all the devils are here”
your poetry makes my mind want to paint
to your words, my love I can truly relate
hoping to find you, somewhere in me
without style I’m lost, I just cannot see
come to my dream, at least one time?
give me your wisdom on midnight’s chime
oh lover thy be, oh lover thy be
would you, could you have desire for me?
my question therefore is…
to be or not to be?

Teddy!!! I think Shakespeare would fall in love with you!! I love this one!! Very straight to your face! This is what I want, kind of poetry. Oh he would definitely consider you!!!! 😉😉😉💖💖💖💖💖💖
lol my dear Liz, Thank you for your very kind words. ❤️
after reading this Teddy, how could he possibly say no !
lol , ah you big softy. ❤️
Hardly bardly but the guy would be crazy to decline thee .. ❤️
lol 🤣 thank you my dearest Nev. I really only want him for his sonnet. ❤️
of course, so you had better get onnit ❤️
Perhaps in some ethereal way he already has visited you. Your writing skills must have come from someone. That's not to say that there will ever be another Shakespeare, but we all aspire to some form of poetic clarity. Your poem has reminded all of us why we endeavor so. A poem to make us all think. - Phil A.
Thank you so much, I have one sonnet to my name and it's actually thanks to Shakespeare, I absolutely love his poems but his sonnet are truly magical. Thank you dear Phil. ❤️
I love this, superbly crafted...why wouldn't he consider thee? He'd be a fool not to. Great write.
Dear Thomas, so very kind of you it's his sonnet I really truly deeply love. But also his poetic soul. Thank you so much ❤️
Always a fan of Shakespeare and many of his lines, I have wondered how he had such an expansive vocabulary' This poem rings true and I too have felt how wonderful it would be to be able to get a lesson or two from the greatest, but then it would be like Mozart trying to teach me piano, a waste of his time. Your meter carries one along this poem which is enhanced by the rhyme that is pleasing to the ear. Shakespeare did not always rhyme. Maybe you could teach him a thing or two. Lovely poem Teddy with a thought dear to the heart of many a poet.
Awe thank you so much my dear sorenbarret I just love your words, it makes the writer want to write when the reader leaves such an appreciating review, I too would be in the line up for lessons with Mozart but I am quite sure he would tell me to leave after the first keys were played, ill stick to karaoke and my very own rendition of (Man I Feel Like a Women By Shania Twain lol... thank you my friend. 🌹
