Petrarchan Sonnet on Petria Vines


Petria Vines


Bursting brick wall of Petria
A hue as clear as tanzanite
Meaning affection at first sight
Entangled with Wisteria
The background eased with Lavender
When complete the blooms will take flight
and spin! Now they are youthful, bright
Along with Pride of India

Vines 'n leaves disguised the smooth wall
Soft, heavenly water gushes
gracing petals that are depressed
adjacent to marked Ridpath Hall
Over-thriving bares wild lashes
Every fair stem charmingly dressed
