An orange by any other name would taste as sweet.

There is a website that will generate a sonnet for you.  I love the internet.

 

Ode to the Orange

 

My sweet orange, you inspire me to write.

How I love the way you eat, sit and squeeze,

Invading my mind day and through the night,

Always dreaming about the juicy seize.

 

Let me compare you to a bound buffet?

You are more perfect, orange and tasty.

Sound breeze flaps the dimpled dancers of May,

And the springtime has the goosey pasty.

 

How do I love you? Let me count the ways.

I love your goosy peel, slices and seeds.

Thinking of your meet slices fills my days.

My love for you is the citrusy leeds.

 

Now I must away with a subject heart,

Remember my blue words whilst we're apart.

That's better than anything I've thought of so far!
