Random Thoughts 52 the Ottava Rima

Ottava Rima abababcc, dededeff, ghghghii lines of 10 or 11 syllables For the longest time you were just a dream, A fantasy cast while deep in REM sleep. I watch as you rest, my new found beauty. The perfect match, so much more than a creep. Lone wolf on the prowl till you stepped on the scene, it's been so long since being swept off my feet. I cannot tell you that I've fallen in love, But girl we fit like an Isotoner glove. So incomplete before you stepped in my life, no longer the lone wolf, I have found my mate. Tossing and turning alone late at night, not sprung yet boo, but I know this is fate. I'll compromise, to this love I'll comply. My heart belongs to you, there is no debate. Only time will tell if we are meant to be, I am devoted to you with honesty.. I am not that man you have had in the past I am true to you boo, a faithful man. The affections I give will forever last. Our new love has blossomed and I feel grand, let it develop and not move to fast. Through tribulation we can both withstand. Take my hand boo so we can live as one because I need you, like the earth needs the sun.... Dedicated to Kim.... The one with whom has taken my heart..... Jared Pickett 12/10/2010 Asavvy1

Kim's a lucky gal to have a man who wait until he's sure to profess his eternal devotion. This is a great example for those of who have been struggling with the ottava rima form, Jared. Hope you and Kim share magical moments this holiday season! Peace and blessings, Carolyn
