Of Course a Sonnet

OF COURSE A SONNET is just a word No its not it’s something I’ve never heard But what does it mean, I didn’t know To the dictionary I did go OF COURSE A SONNET should not confuse With lyrics that are fourteen lines long Convectional rhyming schemes are used When it’s read it can sing like a song OF COURSE A SONNET goes back in time Back when Shakespeare was making a rhyme I read a few and thought they were fine But it’s not the form, for poems like mine OF COURSE A SONNET, just isn’t me My poems are simple as they can be
METER FORM - SONNET
