Sucker for a Sonnet

I adore a pretty poem -

florid words softly celebrating

hibernating hearts

love-stung wide-aware

( like autumn-lulled lungs

inhaling fresh arctic air ).



I’m a sucker for a sonnet -

fourteen lines of iambic pentameter

strictly rhymed

commemorating gentle souls

careening out of control

with fierce desire.



Hell -

I used to be that kind of writer.
