Tonight's Poet Corner: Sonnet Solstice #11
Six Months
by Belinda Roddie
[Today is Thanksgiving, but it is also my six monthiversary with my girlfriend. I wrote this sonnet this morning and posted it on her Facebook wall, and she adored it. So I thought, what the Hell, I'll put it here. Enjoy the sap.]
Six months, like a half moon glowing above,
have been enriched with whims and smiles and love.
I thank you for your presence, warmth, and cheer
and for the happy days that brought us here.
I must confess that you've enchanted me
since day one as we weave this tapestry
of laughter, sadness, and all in between -
you are my life, my hope, my everything.
As you enjoy this festive holiday,
please know that I intend to always stay
beside you through the worst and through the best.
So let me grab a glass, puff out my chest
and toast to you, the girl that I adore:
Let's have another six months, then six more.
