Orphan Sonnet

Dale Gregory Cozart created it with a rhyme scheme of Abab cdcd efef aA in three quatrains and a couplet, with the final line repeating the opening line.                      

   

A sunflower sun blooms high in the sky; sowing its rays on the sand and the waves. And seagulls assault the air with their cry; as crabs dart in and out of flooded caves. Their orange carapace, in stark contrast; crabs seek algae as the mud flats expand. And chase the tides, relentless and steadfast, o'er coral shards and alabaster sand. As a moist mist coalesces offshore, fog swallows the sun, consuming its light. And its face isn't visible anymore; till brisk breezes disperse this ghostly sight. As the heat of Sol's rays intensify, a sunflower sun blooms high in the sky.
