Sonnet Erratic- For Contest

Sonnet Erratic- for contest When i saw a peacock i asked for a plume When the plume it gave i laid it on the floor When the floor was watered the green grass grew When grass i fed to cattle milk they gave When i drank milk i grew tall and strong Now that i am tall ladder is of no use Ladder I sold in seconds sale in my town Got a few bucks, i bribed the moon As the moon came early, night spread soon As night came, my time to sleep came soon I am under the blanket, trying best to sleep I now realised its impossible to buy sleep! Till my actual sleep time came, I had to wait.. Oh my poetry friends read aloud and laugh Let colleagues peep to see what happened.. If u are at home thanks for reading my sonnet!!!! Fourteen lines u count it have i not kept the rule?? Sorry if u really counted there are few lines more ! Iambic pentameter has taken break to watch a newly released movie and have pop- corn ! At home or office, have coffee with chocolate cream After reading this poem you will need for sure! Best thing i suggest is stop reading at this point And get back to your work!!!! To err is human, to forgive is divine I tried to make u laugh... If i failed to do it..... I repeat again...to err is human to forgive is divine for contest :dont fight it...just write it!
