School Sonnet


When I first started to study at Mun,
So excited to learn my profession.
Boy, I sure thought it would be lots of fun.
This could not be done in just one session,
I quickly learned that it would take some time.
The fun that would be had among my friends,
Before that shiny degree would be mine.
Time for friends only on the weekends,
Working all week long to make my brain strong.
With not one break until the weekend comes.
Sometimes the week days seem so very long,
My hard work gives me blisters on my thumbs.
All year long I will do my very best,
In order to pass every single test.

Writing a Sonnet was one of the hardest forms of poems I've ever had to write. I found it directly affect the poetic language and devices I could use because so much work was put into just finding lines to fit the poetic feet and rhyme scheme. It was the difficultly I had with the fitting words to the tight form that limited the poem of all poetic devices.
