A Snakesperian Sonnet
You are the king of love that I do woo.
Oh, will you just give me one snakey kiss?
My heart shaped hood is my love gift to you;
I hope you like my strong romantic hiss.
I compliment you on your bright patterns,
Some of your scales are like a vampires cloak.
Your swirling gold rings are just like saturns,
I long to tame your eyes of deep brown oak.
I love your hood that is a warning sign,
Ferocious fangs that are as sharp as knives.
You are the king cobra, you are divine;
I live my love for us to share our lives.
You are the King, I hope to be your Queen
Because you are the handsomest snake seen.
