Oh Seraph loving celestial being
Through clouds you tiptoed ,finger playing harp strings
Long and short stroking , affecting my heartstrings
Fine looking maiden with eyes bejewelled
Porcelain skinned , golden trusses i espied
(Alas you stole my heart with no thought shown
Ripping shred from shred torn as if your own )
Alive with grace she strode dignity in dance
My heart did pound as i await her advance
Feverish sweat I did perspire should she pass
I caught her eye she welcomed me at last
She slid beside loving with tender blithe
I write this sonnet for you my darling
Oh Seraph loving celestial being
thank you

The turn was difficult but just about got away with it
Was not familiar with volta or turn. We learn so much at MPS. As I interpret the turn, a moment of grace, or from one thought to another and then apply that to your sonnet I believe you were successful. From angels and heartstrings ant celestial things suddenly there was a heart ripped to shreds. Mission accomplished. Nice rhyme and meter. Well done.
Thank you Augustus . Means a lot to get your approval
