It's time for a sonnet

I haven't posted a sonnet for awhile, so here's one to make up for that.


when we are given what we wish for

It has a certain special welcomeness,
as it occurs the times when it will be
appropriate -- although bright minds could guess
it is not always so! But when I see
her expectation, and I know I can
provide the bare intensity she needs,
then I appreciate the place a man
is welcome and desired, and where my deeds
are awesome in the private rite and realm
that my erectitude creates. Here seeds
could cert be planted, yet the overwhelm-
ing urge is to conjoin, as love concedes
the value of the physical exceeds
the fundamentals of the clan and creeds.
