Here is a sonnet in response to the first random sonnet and my clever notion that nothing rhymes with orange. Some people on Facebook thought they'd be clever, so I responded with this:
II:
So when I posted sonnet patterns here
I talked about an orange and of its rhyme
I thought I used the knowledge that is clear
But then I hear my clever joke's a crime
The first to hit the comments was a hinge
And then a lozenge went and hit the list
If rhymed with one of those then one may cringe
For I confess imperfect rhymes I missed
But everyone's a critic, that I know
Cause when you post a thing, you know there's talk
It's not too solemn, just a little show
I'm flattered that you watched me like a hawk
But still I guess I got the meter right
Since no one said iambic got a slight
