Mischief

Though sonnets are always dear to my heart 
I'd rather write them, then right them right        
You won't find a syllable count here in sight    
but a foible or two, well that I can do; 
        
If perfection you seek, find it you shan't     
cuz this mischievous poem is deviant and free   
tethered together for thee;       
disassembled it's puzzling, even for me ; 

Some like it cold some like it hot   
this poem is loose as a chord with no knot 
Go find me a poet who does it just right 
while searching for letters to write
                  I think not..... 
 
I do hope you are clever like Johnny McDever 
or I will keep writing like this, forever and ever !

What else should we expect from a Pixie but mischief. Delightful sonnet. Don't overindulge over Christmas or we might have to wait a while for an on-core. Regards David in NZ

Its important to write in whichever form frees our soul Jan. If it isn't sonnets then write what your heart tells you too. Enjoy the weekend, Thanks for the drop in

You have managed to capture the beauty of a sonnet and reshape it through self expression, weaving your thoughts into a poem that is easy to relate to and a delight to read. Emile.
