Zoe's class has been working on poetry and Shakespeare lately and they all had to write a sonnet of their own. I thought Zoe's was pretty good, so I am going to share it here!
The sonnet is written in a specific format, it follows this pattern: ABABCDCDEFEFGG, there are fourteen lines, ten syllables each.
Sprinting from the monster in the pitch black
The boy tries to hide his fear by smirking
He will become the monsters yummy snack
Maybe he will save his eye as a ring
The boy only thinks of such nasty thoughts
Now he see's a girl which brightens his day
She is pretty and has lots of curls, lots
He runs over to her, her name is May
They run, now side by side, from the monster
Who in fact is getting really so close
Right now, the most important thing is her
The boy sees the monsters face, it is gross
He is now sweating and she is screaming
Wake up, realize you were only dreaming

It is very well done. When I first read I didn't really like it until that last line, which brings it all together. Very subtle and very nicely done.
