A Sonnet for today

Today I think a Sonnet I may write
Although I know this style can be quite hard.
I  really have to get the meter right
I wish I could now call upon the bard.

For he would tell me if I get it wrong
And guide my hand to help my poem flow.
Advise me how to make my Sonnet strong
Cause' he's the one who really ought to know.

A Sonnet's theme should be about a love
Created by the stroke of poets pen.
And that is what I truly write thereof
My poet's hand creating verse again.

So if you read my words I think you'll find
 My true love really sits within my mind.

Author Notes
My 4th poem is an attempt at a Sonnet.

Bard means poet and William Shakespeare was one of the greatest Sonnet writer of all time.

I hope I havent strayed to far LOL

Thanks to Alex Ehrhardt for the image Lost Feather it reminded me of a quill I sure used by many old poets

Thanks for reading and for your support

Cheers Christine
