Love Sonnet 78: They Say, Red Sunset Skies Predict Clear Day,

They say, red sunset skies predict clear day,
For next morning, and yellow sunrise tells
Of rain, the very day it would display,
But naught they tell how in your heart love dwells;
Do you smile to stoke love's embers burning,
Touch tenderly, affirm affinities,
Or tease the twilight for fiery evening,
And hug so tight to bridge infinities?
As seasons come, then so the year follows,
Waves recede to break back with higher surge,
After the calm, much fiercer wind bellows,
Are there omens for coming storm to splurge?
.....Wisdom is oft denied the common mind,
.....That is, so bliss in innocence they find.
