Super duper Sonnet! Love that it's so contemporary with that sprinkling of a comedic envoi! Ah, romance...
It's subject to unwelcome tire tracks!
I'm not an expert, but it seems it's in fine iambic pentameter!
Congrats on giving this traditional form a fine modern day spin!
(Yup, anonymous, you got my vote!)

Comment from Rena Smith
Awwww, too cute and sweet. Sometimes, men just don't get it but God certainly did them a big favor putting women in their lives. He new they were going to need some helpmates. I enjoyed reading this sonnet, great job.

Awe, thank you so much Rena, for such a kind review and words. My husband has so many other ways of showing me how much he loves me. So I couldn't be too upset that he didn't do this. However people sure got a kick out of the story. Thanks again for your wonderful review my fr
Comment from Sally Law
Wow, I can't imagine a husband who wouldn't take full credit for this and and let the chips fall where they may! You did, after all, lay a big fat kiss on him! A fun one with an unexpected jab at the end, and aptly illustrated. Six stars for your offering today and my very best with your entry!
Blessings to you all,
Sally Law, et al

Oh Sally, I am so appreciative of your beautiful review, and lovely words for my sonnet. I thank you too for those gracious gift of six stars. You are so very sweet my dear friend! Thank you again!
Comment from Katherine M. (k-11)
Sonnets are rarely even amusing, but this is truly hilarious. The only thing I didn't like was the note, apart from the fact that it was a true story. Kate xx

Thank you Kate for your lovely words for my Sonnet. I appreciate your kindness and after giving your comments thought about the notes, I completely agree that it might have been more interesting to leave that part alone; at least for the sense of a little mystery. Thank you my dear friend for your very kind review.
Comment from Paul McFarland
A rare six stars from me. This is really clever. You must be a true romantic. I had to look at the picture a few times before I finally saw the image that you saw.

Comment from jake cosmos aller
i liked this sonnet about love, marriage and wondering what your partner really feels and thinks, so many times, what is he or she really thinking at all what is in his or her heart .

Thanks so much Jake. The poor guy had no idea what I was so happy about. However I couldn't really be mad because he didn't do it. I think I have a pretty good idea how he feels after 48 years of marriage. Lol!
I sure appreciate your very kind review and comments my dear friend !
Comment from godlucifer
i guess for a minute there the morning look like two hearts as one. it takes two to tangle and one to love as lovers crouch to each other that morning. your poem was written with an outstanding effort. thanks for the read.

I thank you godlucifer. You are so kind, and. Yeah he is not big on that kind of caring but is a great guy and husband of 48 years and shows in other ways how much he loves me. I should have known that wasn't up his line of romance. But it was a nice few hours, at least thinking it was a possibility. Thanks again for the very kind comments, my dear friend.
Comment from Spitfire
A big laugh from me at the last line. Appropriate font that underscored the romantic feeling wife had toward hubby. I love that it is a true story. A well-done sonnet.

Thanks Shari. He even tried to show me how it could happen with the front wheels and the back wheels, going back in the same direction. And I am like, are you an idiot? Every time you say it, it reminds me that you didn't do it. Lol! Anyway, everyone got a big kick out of it. What surprises me, is if that can happen so easily, then why don't we see it more often?? Oh well, it is what it is. If he really did It and didn't own up, and I find out in Heaven some day, I hope God gives me a permission to clobber him just once. Hahaha!!

My firm belief is that he did it and is now pretending that he did not do it. I am the type of husband that would do this and allow you to wonder. I am willing to wager that he did do it. He may never admit it.
