God had
intended
us to write our
poems in this form,
He would have given us
thirteen digits on our hands,
three to hold the quill or pen with
and the remaining ten to count the
syllables that we have penned in each line.

hehe so true!! I tried to write in this form once and found exactly the same thing - constantly counting on fingers the number of syllables

Your first etheree huh?? Well, to put it mildly you have a witful sense of humor....and yet I have to agree with you. But then again, I guess that's why I stopped writing in form unless needed -
Wow... That was cute and funny indeed! I had to stifle a chuckle here. What a great way to introduce form poetry! Brilliant poem, and good luck to you

I have often said that Shakespeare must have written with his feet ... so he could use his fingers to count syllables for his sonnets. But I cannot conquer either of the forms so there you are! cute write.
