I Think I'Ll Try To Write a Sonnet Now

I think I'll try to write a sonnet now They say it takes a while to learn the ropes Yet while it's true that no one's taught me how Still something deep inside me whispers, "Hope!" I'll seek a subject that will reach one's soul Like faith or love, or flower's bloom in spring The meter and the rhyme should surely flow While metaphors and similes need ring The start must grab the reader, hold him fast So that his blood is coursing through his veins Engage him from the first word to the last Addressing his emotions and his brains I see it's almost time this sonnet ends Hope you've enjoyed this poem, dearest friend ~ Iambic Pentameter ~
