The Funoms Sonnet

The Funom's Sonnet Contest
Sponsor: Funom Makama

My man, can you be the one?
My age will not be the reason.
We can go out in the sun,
and be us in any season.
We had a day of joy and fun,
we can not be a few heathens.
Oh my, we can act so young,
on our way to adhesion.
Bye to us is not an option,
we can be a concoction,
let us get rid of all toxins.
Go to the top of a mountain,
to see our age old fountain, 
our sky lit up for the counting.

Age is just a number, and it is definitely not a reason to opt out of being forever young! Lovely poem, nicely crafted in this innovative style. Congrats, Laura, truly enjoyed reading the poem.
