Interplay...

Miltonian  sonnett :
                                                                                                              http://dversepoets.com/





Set in a dream within another dream,                                                                    
weaving together each our narratives,
the wizard creates with imperative
minded by a specific color scheme.  
The veil of time intertwines with a theme    
 - not visible as the main causative
Forming a coverlet affinitive,                                        
an inter-playing of underside seams
Unaware we, the ins, outs of our days 
awaking from dreams with common corners,  
thus reassuring all things made thereof -
the original dream dreamed never fades 
by turning the moon around one quarter
All that sorely counts is how much we love

    cool interplay for sure..the dreams with common corners spoke to me especially...the dreams don't have to be totally identical, they just have to overlap in certain parts...makes it even more interesting... really cool write that spoke to me very personally as well...so thank you...smiles

    Love dreams with common corners. I would hope my most treasured dreams might be shared ones. I love what the form allowed you to create in your gentle pen.

    A fantastical interpretation of dreaming, framed within the sonnet structure. Well-played.

    Dreams have often been repetitive, dreams 'with common corners' Are related to the sub-conscious, perhaps the reason! Nicely Kathy!

    Makes me think of the bardos in Buddhism, where waking life is just a longer illusion than our dreams while asleep. Love and compassion make both much happier, with dreams informing life, and life informing dreams.

    I've always loved the image of life as a quilt, made up a different woven strands--from the underside the thing looks like a mess, and even the topside looks rather chaotic for a while, but in the end it all comes together . . . with love. Nicely written!

    Good rhyme to weave together a dreamy picture of our dreamy lives held together by love.

    Your sonnet seems to suggest that the dream has only as much substance as the love you carry within! As love grows and maybe transforms, so too do the dreams! For me, that is the interplay! Beautiful!

    Thought-provoking. If all is dream, then what of love? Intriguing thought.

    Intriguing interplay beautifully articulated. The final couplet is a perfect conclusion.
