120 'Schoolboyish" Petrarchan Sonnets is a collection composed in a rather basic manner that essentially consisted of starting with a first word and then 'merely running' with that same word.

120 'Schoolboyish" Petrarchan Sonnets is a collection composed in a rather basic manner that essentially consisted of starting with a first word and then 'merely running' with that same word. The aforementioned schoolboyish aspect of the entire collection should not at all detract from a sense that a sonnet can be very narrow and also highly ornate. The various individual examples may seem to veer here, there, and practically everywhere in terms of possible 'meanings'; meanwhile, each sonnet may be in strict keeping or almost strict keeping with the apparently preferred formulaics of John Keats and of the sprung-rhythm 'master' Gerard Manley Hopkins. SOME FORESTS Some forests must be rich and lovely parts of earthly wishes for a wondrous day whose every moment soon might seem to say kind words that speak of splendor that restarts. Implicit in a wooded world are charts on which might seem to thrive a fine array of plants and animals that surely pay obeisances eclipsing human arts. Endangered though all forests now must seem, a great resilience rules what Nature is till wondrousness will not go up in steam. Perfection forms an adamantine fizz permitting anything to form a dream in which a million shadows dart and whiz.
