Question:

Sonnets poems about puppets???

I need help on making a sonnet poem about a puppet??? Would you like to help??


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

here is an example of one, notice the letters at the end,,,,, the lines with the same letters must ryhme,,, so you first need to find an ending sound, words, for a threw e,,,,,, then fit it all in,,,,, perhaps for puppets you might could use string(ring, bring, sing),,,,, show (know),,,,,etc etc,,,, i suggest creating the first few lines,, find the rythme, then go from there , (the example below is an italian sonnet,,,,,the english sonnets often used a form of "a-b-a-b, c-d-c-d, e-f-e-f, g-g"- which i imagine is the form you need to use,,,,,,,, i just put the italian one up for example ) each group,,,, say the abab would be connected in what you are saying,,,,meaning related to each other,,, a clear thought or statement,,, with the g-g summing up your poem




"How soon hath Time, the subtle thief of youth, (a)

Stolen on his wing my three and twentieth year! (b)

My hasting days fly on with full career, (b)

But my late spring no bud or blossom shew'th. (a)

Perhaps my semblance might deceive the truth, (a)

That I to manhood am arrived so near, (b)

And inward ripeness doth much less appear, (b)

That some more timely-happy spirits indu'th. (a)
Yet be it less or more, or soon or slow, (c)

It shall be still in strictest measure even (d)

To that same lot, however mean or high, (e)

Toward which Time leads me, and the will of Heaven. (d)

All is, if I have grace to use it so, (c)
