Porcelain
A Sonnet for my Muse
A sonnet about the love I feel for my inspirational Muse
Obvious music is “Porcelain” by Moby but the concept was from “Porcelain Thing” a character in “Sir Henry At Rawlinson End” by the sadly missed Vivian Stanshall.

I know you are strong , you make your success
But I must protect you, keep you from harm
Your mind has seduced me, captured by charm
So I will hold you and keep you from stress
💜
My porcelain muse, the source of my dreams
In gossamer raiment, Light of my Life
A lover unrivalled, You are my wife
Caressing your skin, with porcelain sheen
💜
I’m here to look out for you, hold you close
I want you forever, my porcelain Muse
Such Strength in Fragility, I’ve not known
Each Day you amaze me, the words you choose
I’ll always protect you, love you the most
My porcelain Muse, you are my Jewel
