Writing a Sonnet

A sonnet I shall write Oh, how does it go? Ah, I think I know! A, B, B, A, am I right?! And I shall write away the night, My pen ready to go! A, B, B, A, twice in a row. Writing til the morning’s twilight Breaks through the distant sky. Now the tune and rhyme changes pace. 6 more lines to go and my Hands and the sun are engaged in a race. The finish line drawing nigh; My pen scribbling, the sun sizzling, a mighty chase!
