Sound Familiar?
(is this a sonnet?)

I can compare a Summer’s Day
A wonderful, perfect, lifetime mate:
Bad storms, winds, in this month of May
Summer comes/goes in far too fast a rate
Too often the bright Sun burns, when shines
And sometimes, the golden hue dimm’d
And at times the best of best declines,
The leaves of life can change, untrimm’d
But, summer in my heart, will never fade
And/or, the great debt, that I owest
Or all the love that my heart bade
Death of that love, thou will never knowest
So long as I breathe, and, heart does see
You will forever be, a part of me.

14 lines…
Sound thought, or discipline…
Hints of Shakespeare…
I can see an eight-line octave…
A six line sestet…
Includes painful feelings (don’t see the sexual love part, but who’s interested in that).
Looks like one to me…

But what do I know?  

Great write Abe!!
