More Shakespeare's Sonnets
By Fox-Trot-9

Sonnet 67: Interlude 2
(Crown of Sonnets 1)

Before it's done, let's bring our poet back
And see how he reacts upon the scene
Of prince and mistress. Veiled in shadows black,
Our poet hides behind the shadowed green
Of trees and bushes, hidden out of sight,
Whereat the fountain splashes its sweet music
Against the silent brooding of the night,
Enough to turn a priest and nun agnostic!
Our poet cannot here the words they say,
Nor can he judge expressions at a glance,
Nor can he hold his jealousies at bay
Upon this cloak-and-dagger circumstance:
      And yet he knows the nature of the heart;
      A heart can change and therefore break apart.

(To be continued...)

A/N: I know it's been a LONG time since I last updated this collection, but I feel that I can continue with these pieces... There will be more, starting off with another 7-sonnet interlude in the form of a crown of sonnets... Hope you enjoy!
