A sonnet
Our Fortress Love
by kiwisteveh
Fear not the rattling rain, o gentle heart, Nor shudder at the gale that shakes the eaves; No storm can overthrow or tear apart Our fortress love. Who questions that, deceives. For did we not build stone on stone to last Against temptation's tempest? Set in place Foundations to withstand the jealous blast? A drawbridge raised in fickle fortune's face? Though raging winds may strain the oaken beams And granite blocks are weathered by the tears Of countless winters, fortified by dreams, Our stronghold still defies besieging years. Fear not, I say, but come, I'll hold you tight;
Secure in love, we'll brave the wildest night.
