Sonnets of Possibility

Using your responses to today's prewriting questions, you need to write a Sonnet of Possibility that will be due next Monday.  Writing in sonnet form requires that you follow certain rules related to meter, rhyme and structure.  THIS WEBSITE will walk you through the rules for English sonnet writing, but you may use any of the sonnet forms we discussed in class before the exam.

The website suggests reading some sonnets and mimicking the writing style, so here are some of the sonnets we've studied or been introduced to this year:

Sonnet 130 by William Shakespeare (English sonnet)
"Ozymandius" by Percy Shelley (indefinite form)

Lastly, please start thinking of pictures or a note you might like to place in your letter to yourself.  We will fill and address your letters next week.
