First Post

I'm going to start out with one of my more structured poems, a sonnet. I like this one because it's about the ocean, which I love, and because the situation described in it is true; autobiographical, I guess I should say. And I *think* I managed to use a rhyme scheme without it dominating the whole tone of the poem. It doesn't feel overly sing-song to me.

I also think that I'll try to make a habit of giving poems their own posts, and putting any commentary like this in the entry preceding a poetry post.
