Tonight's Poet Corner: Sonnet Solstice #396
There's No Mistake by Belinda Roddie There's no mistake: I am in love with you. I've known it from the day that we first met, when we indulged in a taco or two, as well as a few beers. My father bet that I would ask you out a day later, and he was right. I'm glad that you said yes, and yet, when I saw you, I wasn't sure that you felt the same way about me. Just the sight of me made my heart skip a beat, but I didn't want to cause discomfort on our date, and in the late August heat, I was dizzy. I didn't want to hurt you, but I think you ought to know the truth. How you handle my words is up to you.
