In my Lit class I have to create a Sonnet. I chose the Shakespearean model since it had to be in iambic pentameter and that is the easiest rhyming convention that I could work with. The Sonnet is 10 syllables per line. The Sonnet must be in the correct form and make a clear point.

How did I do? I offer three different ending couplets, which one sounds best. Any help is appreciated.

Thank You.

Cute. Not great, but passable.

I LOVE it. It’s great. I think I prefer your original ending, although all are good. Good work.

I dislike poetry, especially Haiku and rap.
