Book excerpt: This small book is the second book of one hundred sonnets which stand in the shade of Shakespeare. I write this because I am only a shadow of the 'Bards' pen and, in all my years of writing and reading poetry, I have not yet seen anyone to match his craft. I hope you enjoyed the first volume of my Sonnets and I trust you will find the same enjoyment in this book and might reasonably await the next volume with a same appreciation. I thank you for your time and wish you a happy reading. Ron S King.
