Hello

For those that have entered my sonnet me contest: I have some very good entries... I have a few with the wrong count. I have a few with the wrong rhyme scheme.. I have two that are not any kind of a sonnet... So that everyone will have a chance to win.. If you think yours is not correct please recheck your work.. I have one that has some misspelled words Which could be just an oversight.. I would like those who have doubts to recheck your work... Look at the contest requirements again ..I want sonnet but not just any kind of sonnet...I want 10 syllables per line and only two kinds of rhyming schemes.. Sara

I sure hope I am notin the group you are discussing here with errors. Good luck with the contest,Sara.OFten those who need to see this kind of post are the ones who never read it. That is what I notice teaching anyway. The students who make all the mistakes are the ones always missing classes. haha. lUv, Andrea

I have entered the Spenserian sonnet. Is that included in two kinds of rhyming schemes? Please clarify.

I see a lot of sonnets and Haiku's that are not what they are suppose to be, so know what you mean, this was a good write, enjoyed it. thank you for reading The Red Water Pump and for your comment
