From His Sweet Lips

a contemporary sonnet with 14 lines, penned in decasyllable with a non-rhyming metered flow.



From His Sweet Lips

O’ the skies lining, how bounding they hide
Blaze and gazing eyes as winged creature’s fly
God keeper of my heart, He will not part
Holding me in His splendor from the start
No wings adorn, I bestow human form
Our father blew from His lips, through man's nose
Bestowing precious gift's of living souls
Calling upon the Lord in times of need
Praising father, blazing hearts desire
Singing in His choir, words I devour
His healing empowers like rain showers
Baptizing in the name of The Father
The Son and Holy Ghost cleansing our soul
Preparing us to soar on Heaven’s shore.


Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God
formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed
into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

With the advent of free verse, the sonnet came to be seen as somewhat old-fashioned and fell out of use for a time among some schools of poets. However, a number of 20th-century poets, including Wilfred Owen, John Berryman, Edwin Morgan, Robert Frost, Edna St. Vincent Millay, E.E. Cummings, Jorge Luis Borges, Pablo Neruda, Joan Brossa, Rainer Maria Rilke, and Seamus Heaney continued to use the form. The advent of the New Formalism movement in the United States has also contributed to contemporary interest in the sonnet.
