Does anyone write sonnets anymore? (history is cyclical)

As much as I like Post Post-Medernism, here's a blast from the past I wrote a few years ago for a special lady

God's Gift

She knows me as a trusting confidant
her secrets that I keep, trust never breaks
these waves of love, the ebb and flow they want
to wash away this burning heart that aches

Could this be lust that tempts my living soul
to wish that we were lovers, two as one
the bond we have so precious few extol
lust won't exhume my body's soul when done

I gaze into her smiling angel eyes
blue portals to her Heaven's soul so pure
yet all my thoughts of love they do surmise
these two never make one, I must endure

past loves resolved yet not dissolved they rhyme
suspended in love's waves as sands of time.

The truest measure of friendship is honesty

I do. Most of my poems are somehow related to sonnet, like the one I've posted here ('Blessing').

When actually writing sonnets I use AABB BAAB AAA BBB or close to that. I just like fancy rhymes and rhytm Wink... Sometimes something like AABBCC ABABCC ABAB AABB is better for me even though that's not a classic sonnet.
