I can remember
The first time we met.
You were so cocksure
And I so hard-set.

Somehow I knew
From the time my coffee
Hit your new
Shirt that it was meant to be.

Do forgive me if this
Poem is perhaps too sentimental.
You see, I figured a kiss
would be too banal.

I will say this, however,
You are the one I prefer.

The second sonnet of the two I had to turn in for my Poetry class. This could be considered a companion poem to the sestina I wrote. I don't really like this one as much as the sestina, but it still had to be written...so there.

Sonnet is one poetic form I have been quite eager to attempt. It can be done without rhyme? You have given me hope, as my rhyming skills are dreadfully lacking.
Wonderful work. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Why thank you for enjoying this. And yes, it can be done without obvious rhyme and doesn't have to be in iambic pentameter (which makes me happy). Happy sonnet writing!

If this were played upon a stage now, I could condemn it as an improbable fiction. - "Twelfth Night", Act 3, Scene 4

Ah, sweet relief. Thank you very much. :)
