Sonnet Sized (based on Sonic, America's Drive-In) The systematic roll of window first As thunder turns my nerves into a glue And only one thing now will quench my thirst A greater love than Ocean Water blue! I push the button, red, to place my call My order, she asks, is it now at hand? I do not wish this time to end at all So garbled words, she will not understand Insistent now, she asks that I repeat By every means, she wants to get it right Do I want a single or double meat My words, unheard, and so she stays from sight Her feet are not iambic, nor are the fries So I ask she take it back and make it Sonnet Sized [This message has been edited by wayoutwalt (02-26-2002 11:09 AM).] |

(giggles in delight) Awwwwwww, this is sooooooo funny and cute, in Colorado we have many new Sonics and I know all about the drive-in service and they come to you on roller-blades with the treats, ooohhhhh...I hope when you ordered the sonnet size the server didn't trip on a couplet! (giggles) we all love you so much, sweet friend, this is fabulous! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Walter, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

I have no SONICS here... My iambics are surely pentametering though... |
