True challenge to start. As French, I like the scheme of Clément Marot, even it is an old scheme... But too hard to respect and I took liberties : instead of the scheme ABBA ABBA CCD EED, I used the scheme ABBA CDDC EEF GGF.
Like listening the bird's song
As hearing the bird's song now at my window
You came to give me happiness in my own life
As seeing the squirrels which jump among wildlife
Your beauty explodes in my heart beyond shadow
Your glance is a true window to your nice soul
As diamond in its box, glistening just for you
Your so splendid mouth invites me to kiss you
Really your love fills, in my heart, the big hole
To admire you, my heart jumps up with happiness
And you jump yourself in my strong arms, lightness
Our hugs are sweet, we compensate for the wait
Then climate becomes warmer in our bedroom
Bird's song is covered by our moanings whom
Increase up we get the time of orgasm so great
Like listening the bird's song
As hearing the bird's song now at my window
You came to give me happiness in my own life
As seeing the squirrels which jump among wildlife
Your beauty explodes in my heart beyond shadow
Your glance is a true window to your nice soul
As diamond in its box, glistening just for you
Your so splendid mouth invites me to kiss you
Really your love fills, in my heart, the big hole
To admire you, my heart jumps up with happiness
And you jump yourself in my strong arms, lightness

Sonnet—To Computers et al.
http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hH_caW0GZuA/THzaE4jQQWI/AAAAAAAAAKs/6zs7u5wB3UQ/s320/robot1.jpg
Our lives now evolves on blazing fast computers
The first child that was born in an unholy garage
Conceived and delivered by its first troubleshooters
Now a thing of the past, only left was just a mirage
City slickers from the Valley got famous and wealthy
From the silicon so plenty creating a new gold rush
Wall Street Journal indicated economy as healthy
Never thought the day would come it could crash
Technological and other biological advancements
Could possibly replace humans in the workplace
With a few tinkering and other enhancements
Pretty soon robots would occupy our own space
Computers that used to be bulky and mindless
Shall it rule the world and render us helpless?

"Mother Nature's Art"
That moment of pause between the seasons change
When it's neither spring, summer, autumn, nor winter
Almost like nature holds her breath before a rearrange
Hesitating before the sky and winds turn and splinter
They break and give way to the new coming of time
When Mother Nature landscapes and redecorates again
She'll break out her brushes, an artist at her prime
Making over every leaf, every grass, and furry little friend
Every chosen hue and blend, brushed upon the used canvas
Panorama in a beauty, but sometimes quite gray and stormy
She fumbles and fumes with her work like every artist must
Sweeping her brush in dramatic flourishes, yet so skillfully!
How disheartening when someone disrespects our own masterpieces
But Earth is defaced all the time; instead of a decline it increases!

sonnet #4 dreamscapes
and with magic comes faultless fantasy
in which only the bravest dreams come true
and with love comes most extreme agony
when your feelings come straight out of the blue
and with fear comes greatest self awareness
in which you find what you truly live for
with wisdom comes never a second guess
to give to the public oh ever more
and with knowledge comes faultless arrogance
that blinds you at every other turn
and with ability comes confidence
to where you feel you cannot even learn
and with these things we are human,
united as man and woman
and with magic comes faultless fantasy
in which only the bravest dreams come true
and with love comes most extreme agony
when your feelings come straight out of the blue
and with fear comes greatest self awareness
in which you find what you truly live for
with wisdom comes never a second guess
to give to the public oh ever more
and with knowledge comes faultless arrogance
that blinds you at every other turn
and with ability comes confidence
to where you feel you cannot even learn
and with these things we are human,
united as man and woman

[color=Blue] a sonnet for sinners
fourteen lines, a thing I’ve never done
conscript a thought, and bind it to a rhyme
kidnap a heart, and take it on the run
a stolen kiss may never be sublime
un mort. so like the purpose of a gun
when sex is sin, and love a mortal crime
a bliss of thorns is but a dreamer’s fight
secret lovers, clandestine in the night
our names, a shame that we must not reveal
a sordid passion, we are doomed to feel
a poet’s heart lies buried in the dirt
in time, we learn it’s just ourselves we hurt
forbidden love, that glows like stars that shine –
if it’s a sin, it’s only yours…..and mine

She sings songs,
and finds magnificence in nature.
A place where she belongs,
a slave to pleasure.
Her siren like vocals,
hypnotize those who hear.
As clear as crystals,
blessing to the ear.
She melts men
and laughs at their stupidity.
And she's done only when,
they admit their inferiority.
She is so vile and twisted,
every man wants to be her submissive.

What I see in her distant Sirius eyes’
Is an epic find, crystals in embedment
Intense suns with pristine ray shines
In moony sculpts, her bridal alignment
Mirages of fire grows an echoic aura
Hypnotic mind nears you in a heat-up
Unseen truths tear out the Maya
Opens up in a flash, kick of a hiccup
Meltdown river brims out sublime aqua
Nothing in visions, but in touches subtle
Feeds in my pore with cool needles
To leach out the Karmic dilutions
Latent heart volcanoes in long faking silence
Bursts out unspelt dormancy, in sheer valiance!
