Sonnet #2 - Until King Richard dies

I never really had a structured plan;      I saw ‘Love’, but to all-else I was blind.  I’d just come up and take her outstretched hand...      Then settled in behind me, off we’d ride. The ‘fantasy’! Mine only, I admit:      Of options and of choices, I had none. She took my heart – or I surrendered it;      Then we start ‘separate’ races with the sun.  He gave her bits of freedom and three sons:      Her days were full, just as her nights and ‘twixt. One score and five since all of this begun…      And all that time...she’s held my love a’fixed. I’ll bother not with phone or script or spies...      Until such time I hear: “King Richard dies!”
