The Funom's Sonnet is a new style of sonnet of my own creation. After trying the Occitan sonnet as a new challenge with a good score from critics, I have decided to go an extra mile in composing sonnets.

The Funom's Sonnet consists of 14 lines, each line made up of 7/8 syllabic word count. The rhyme pattern is in this form


a-b-a-b,a-b-a-b,c-c-c,d-d-d.


The major unique feature of this new kind of sonnet is its words. Apart from the rhyming words, all other words in this poem should consist of not more than three letters. For instance, one of the lines is


"Two on one can by far get much"

Asides the last word which is a rhyming word in this particular line, all others are three letters words or less. Ability to do all these make up the Funom's Sonnet.

You can also try it but for the main time, enjoy this

He is not as sensitive she is not new to the pledge he's in nap, she is too active her bed is a two way sledge on her woe, he is so creative his pet on her, has an edge ego and gap tax the motive she ask not for asunder nor any of war or thunder joy fed to Anaconda as a rat in the den hides. Why is it her to abide? her low and he, all to divide
