Love Sonnet 149 As darkening shadows of night are cast
As darkening shadows of night are cast,
Stripping off a day from Eternity,
And whose sorrows add, to my lonely past,
To bode my waiting in perpetuity:
You came wafting like breeze, but left like wind,
And rained on arid ground, but swept like flood,
You are fruit's joy, that's gone, as though destined,
To leave me bitter rinds that soured my blood:
New sets of summer nestlings had flown out,
And soon, I'll hear the robin's mating call,
Despite these changes, how they came about,
The season of my heart remained as Fall:
.......But if you come, Springtime, will I have seen,
.......We will forget how cold, Winter had been.
