The second time she
asked me to write a sonnet,
this is what I wrote.
Everything I write
is for my wife. Has always
been. Shall ever be.
Everything I do,
my very life. As much hers
As it is for me.
Hers is every word
as I write, or as I read–
graphite, ink, or throat.
I think I may have gotten carried away there. So I might as well present in proper format all of the above.
Written in July of 2012. Does it count, or not?
yes it counts…you write such lovely poetry. And that it is for your wife, is an amazing tribute to the love you share.
