What started out as a quirky little self imposed challenge...
Not taken up by the modern poet
The preference for a rhyming couplet
Fourteen lines to put flesh on the target
Whether an ode to a swooning starlet
Or study the cry from a minaret
The sonnet is best as a vocal test
One must not only write words as the text
Now sing the words for the greatest effect
To this add a cogent meme to exist
With resolution and thematic zest
All this for the sake of describing best
The illusive thoughts from a poet's breast
Which my pen has finally layed to rest

Sonnet
To write a sonnet is a lively questNot taken up by the modern poet
The preference for a rhyming couplet
Fourteen lines to put flesh on the target
Whether an ode to a swooning starlet
Or study the cry from a minaret
The sonnet is best as a vocal test
One must not only write words as the text
Now sing the words for the greatest effect
To this add a cogent meme to exist
With resolution and thematic zest
All this for the sake of describing best
The illusive thoughts from a poet's breast
Which my pen has finally layed to rest
