Sonnet

I wrote this sonnet in my Brit Lit class in 7th grade. I kinda like it. :>

I deeply gazed into your eyes so blue
Before you left this world and me, forlorn.
Each day we met and love began anew
I r’member clear the day that you were born.

Our love did grow as morn and night we supp’d
And rounder, fatter, bigger you became
Your tender face so soft and full I cupp’d
Although you larger grew we loved the same.

Some like their girls quite tall and very lean
Not I—mine eyes delight when you are round.
I watch you strolling through the pasture green
You stand out from the crowd—my heart doth pound.

E’en in your death our love I celebrate
Prime rib, chop steak, sirloin adorn my plate.
