Notes About The Poem

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

His Girlfriends Envious Friend

An add to two to form a paste three in a tie as a broom try to fit in, it's a waste one to gel on two in the room not on a ban, the spy has taste one bad eye to bid for a groom can aim, fly and get in a haste a pet ago is now the doom war for a bro, she is to let her hug can dig a big outlet to tow any to the toilet day to day, he is her button he's not for her, far in Bolton how to cut him out, ask Newton

Well done!!! I was never great with metered anything, and I must say, you have done impressively. I love the content of your poem. The lines are unique and thought-provoking, and they provide vivid imagery for the reader as well. "one bad eye to bid for a groom can aim, fly and get in a haste a pet ago is now the doom" I really like that part. Well done Funom!Always, Laura
