**Author's note: This is a sonnet I wrote for class last year. I edited the last 2 lines because I originally thought that it only had to be a couplet. I was unaware that they had to be 10 syllables like the rest of the poem. So yeah, if you've read A Series of Unfortunate Events, then you'll probably get the inside jokes. Enjoy!**


Dear Lemony Snicket,

I have always admired your writing

because each sentence leaves me wanting more.

Your annual ramblings enticing

me to give in and finally adore.

Re-read each alliterated title,

wonder what adventure will happen next.

Laugh at The Grim Grotto's water cycle

as Klaus' brilliant words leave me vexed.

Can I read with Klaus? Can I invent with

Violet? Can I cook with Sunny? I

do not wish to live through your Book the Fifth

but to live through Hurricane Hermit's eye.

Even though Beatrice sleeps underground,

her voice carries on, whispering a sound.
