Juliette's SonnetA Poem by Father MojoI'm inventing my own sonnet style with an internal rhyme in the first line of each new rhyme scheme (i.e a-a, b, a, b; c-c, d, c, d; e-e, f, e, f; g, g). You'll figure it out.
We met in the Spring when the song birds sing,
And I somehow swept you off of your feet. We thought we would have a brief little fling, But our passion fueled combustion and heat. You said with a sigh, "This one day would die-- Everything must waste away and expire." So after “hello,” you practiced “goodbye,” And you set out to extinguish our fire. You have no clue just how much I loved you; I loved you even more than my next breath. But you abandoned my love and withdrew, Forsaking it to an untimely death. It’s proof that even a love that is great, When fused with anger, transforms into hate. © 2012 Father Mojo |
