Un-aware of all the forms
I sometimes vary from the norm
In trying hard to get it right
the words I use are often trite

Forgive a lapse of memory
if hard to follow I may be
It could be worse I'll say in verse
I could be you then you'd be me

But that is Justin Sanity
Instead of two we now have three
And there-in lies the crux my friend
it's why they say I'm 'round the bend

When one and one add up to three
It's hard to tell which one is me !

LOL Doc. Bet, you had fun writing this.
but don't ask me what a sonnet is --
think it all written in ten syllables.
songs I try to write in 6 syllables or 8
or 7 or nine   -- and ditites maybe four
See I am just as confused as you are ---)

Sonnets are easier to read than to write!   And I enjoyed reading yours!

If indeed you're 'round the bend
it matters not to me, my friend
for I'll enjoy your clever sonnet
as much as if't had Shakespeare on it

but then I scarce could comprehend
a sonnet for I've never penned (one)

I don't think this is a sonnet but it sure was funny!
