Sense Sonnet - Acher

Wish Fulfilled

I knew my Mom and Dad loved me,
And had for all my 7 years.
We were a sharing family -
All the laughter and all the tears.
I often asked them why they'd not
Gotten married like the folks of
All my friends. I asked them a lot.
And they'd say what mattered was love.
I figured they knew what was best.
There was a bad car accident.
I was hurt much worse than the rest.
It was a 2 for 1 event.

I got my wish, even though dead.
At my funeral, Mom and Dad wed.
