Ode to my Fiancée

This ode is written for my fiancée during my courting period.

As the days turn to night
Birds stop their flight
Campus gets quiet
I wonder at my plight
Waiting is my fate
But to talk to my date
Is like a golden crate,
In front of my gate
Meet we shall
In the net hall
Forgetting all
Fall in L

Hi Mr. workaholic, how are you?
Anticipation can be a firing-up wonderful thing, eh?

Odes that are written in couplet form should have an equal meter in both lines. Your double-couplets here don’t have a driving meter, so, I hesitate to call it an ode. This is more a free form than anything else.

Thanks for sharing.

Yes, anyone can become a poet in anticipation . Point taken Adam and thanks for your comments.

is it intentionally cut short? nice poem
workaholic on Jan 29, 2009
Yes, I wanted it short and also convey the meaning.

Nice poem. I tend to waffle on and so choose the sonnet for romantic poetry. It’s nice to see brevity but with retention of the meaning.

Hm, very interesting form you’ve got there.

P.S. I’ve stumbled this : )
