Yeah, winter can be such a turn-on for sensitive tissue. Loved your sonnet; I feel it rightfully deserves to win so will add my vote in the forthcoming booth.

Lol. Sensitive tissue. Haha. Thank you for the great review and support, Lisa. From the number of overwhelming reviews (2 before yours) I figured most people weren't appreciating all the work that actually went into this, plus didn't like the bit of ridiculous humor added in there at the end. But when offering a whole 2 cents, I didn't really plan on too many reviews. Lol. Thank you again, Lisa. Made my day.

I appreciated the work and the nipple giggle. I am used to poverty so 2 cents makes me feel rich.
Comment from Pantygynt
This flows nicely in the Shakespearean style. Your iambic pentameter is sound provided you 'admiring' as four syllables. I never resort to the dictionaries over syllables as they are units of sound dependent on individual's pronunciation and I would say it has four pronounced syllables, ad-my-er-ing. Tom there are two distinct vowel sounds in that 'mire'.

I never really even thought about that. I guess some could say it's only 3. I've always said and read it as 4 myself. Thank you for the great review and stars, Pantygynt.
