Sonnet #13 for February

SINGLE SERVING

There’s not enough of me to go around

I was not created to spread self thin

When you get hold of me you’ll see you found

All-in-one package, true treasure within

I’m the missing piece of puzzle you need

To close gap in the space where your heart broke

Nutrient-filled caring is what I’ll feed

Spiritual high it’s sure to evoke

My type of loving is not to be shared

You’ll want to hoard these rare morsels of me

Your needs and my contents perfectly paired

Make you feel so fancy, act bourgeoisie

No need to rush, savor flavor at will

Hunger pangs of soul I completely kill

Sonnet #7 for February

CARDIOLOGY

Normally I’d say don’t play with my heart

But I’m convinced that you deserve a pass

You came with special tactics from the start

Your type of game is amusement in mass

When you gaze at me in that sexy way

My heart dances to a jovial beat

Comedy you bring tickles it all day

Making my cares finally take back seat

Your hands envelop me and my heart skips

Like a buoyant child on schoolyard playground

Each time you smile it does cartwheels and flips

This frolicsome love is mighty profound

You in my life is like lifelong recess

My ticker’s free of drama and distress
