Shakespeare.

This past quarter we have been learning about Shakespeare in comp and lit class.
So naturally, we started off with his sonnets.
Just something to get our feet wet before we dove into Twelfth Night.
My favorite is 116 =)
While studying his sonnets we had to write our own.
We had to use his abab pattern.
And this is what I came up with.....

A. Yes, I say. The season is changing
B. The hot summer sun is now being dulled
A. Dulled by the soft, sweet wind flowing
B. It swishes and sways, I feel myself being lulled

C. The leaves are falling down
D. On to the rain softened ground
C. With the falling comes the sound
D. Crash, crackle, pop, broken, laying in a mound

E. In abundance are the colors in this holiday time
F. The radiant reds, vibrant violets, the bright orange and yellow shine
