In reply to: Mrs. G. 's message, "Becoming Shakespeare: Write Your Own Sonnet (LESSON 4)" on 15:01:03 01/02/03 Thu

After reviewing the characteristics of a sonnet,
compose an original Elizabethan (Shakespearean) sonnet
of 14 lines. Your theme may be traditional (i.e.,
love, nature, etc.) or contemporary, but you must use
the correct rhyme scheme (ababcdcdefefgg) and iambic
pentameter. When you are finished, post your sonnet
as a reply to this message. Get creative and have fun!

Wow, this is hard...Took a while! ...It might be bad so don't be too hard on it guys...

My love for you is comparable to
The mighy river flowing strong and deep
It never stops, nor does it start anew
No need, for it is always there to keep
This love for you can also be compared
To a thick, strong, indestructable wall
There is no reason to have it repaired
Because it will stand and make it through all
My love for you is comparable to
A gorgeous painting, it's beauty unmatched
It's beauty is incredible and true
And with it the locks of hearts are unlatched
Though these things are perfectly wonderful
None so perfect as love is beautiful
