My Unanswerable Question (a varied Shakespearean sonnet) Of Death and beyond I oft obsess And query all who’d lend an ear Beliefs on Heav’n and saving Grace Bestowed upon our loved ones dear. Upon my sister’s self-demise I fretted where her soul may land, For angry gods no doubt despise A mortal’s death by her own hand! Yet, would not those whose minds belied Their common sense and means to cope Be spared the judgement set aside For those with reason, wit and hope? Lo! Until the passing of mine own last breath, I’ll continue to ponder the mechanics of Death. |

Does anyone else enjoy and, perhaps, write sonnets?  |

I have tried writing sonnets before. The best I've been able to to is getting them to rhyme in certain ways. But I've not yet been able to incorporate meter of any kind into it. However, I do enjoy experementing with different styles and trying my hand at meters. THe best I've done in that respect, is "Prophesy", which is in blank verse. |
