Somewhat of a Sonnet...

OK, so I had no clue how to write it, and to me its probably the worst work I have done. But here it is. Don't laugh... :)


He did something daring according to the others
he went towards the light, and came back with pleasure

He knew he had to spread the news to them
but they were stubborn and were stuck in their own ways

Perhaps they were just scared, or afraid
they don't know if the land will be grand

If they would just step outside of the box
if they would just remove their old thoughts

They could see the great that is out the cave
if they would just get out of their seat and walk away

Remove the old life, the little knowledge of other lands
step out of the dark and into the light into better hands

Eventually they will think, they will change their mind,
they will find that the new land was the best thing they will ever find.

  1. Pretty good poem, just not much of a sonnet haha. You could have googled how to do a sonnet, missy! Hahaha. :) I do see that you did at least put effort into writing it though.

  2. I agree with Sara.. It didn't really follow the guidelines for a sonnet. But it has meaning :)

  3. Structure of the sonnet not there but the sense of the allegory was. Good Job :)
