Jeffrey Dela Cruz Poet Sonnet

The Journeyman's Quest

I may lose in a fight and cry,
this is only the beginning,
it will never stop me and try.
I do not remember quitting
for life's one hell of a struggle
either a way or another.
Still, let's get it on and shuffle 
Retrace our steps, move in faster
as the cruel world's evolving,
armed with faith and God in our stead
so to us in this quest, marching
My entire life is spent striving ahead!

Mark J. Halliday February 27, 2015 at 11:20 PM I liked your piece, but would call it a couplet instead of a sonnet. Sonnets have 14 lines (about the only solid rule). Usually the first 12 lines have a pattern such as ABABCDCDEFEF (Shakespearean sonnet), or ABCABCDEFDEF (Italian sonnet), then the last two lines rhyme and also tend to resolve what came before. Jeffrey Dela Cruz February 27, 2015 at 11:37 PM Maybe I will tweak for some changes in the poem's flow and that would suffice. Jeffrey Dela Cruz February 27, 2015 at 11:25 PM It's my first attempt of creating such. My apologies sir. :)
