Sonnet 13

no abstruse thought can claim my heart.
soon mind changes to simpler view.
complexities vanish and depart.
simple mind returns in thought to you.

then my mind gains true wings
and journeys far afield fed on love.
exchanging grace for grace, love brings
a sense of peace, disquiet to remove

and motion cease in restless brain.
quickened action takes hold within.
serene calm towards which i strain
comes unasked for once again!

so abstruse 'tis simple, love's effect
passes understanding of brain's aspect.
