1. Think of an idea for your sonnet. It must be just one single idea. It could be a feeling, like being in love. It could be some thought you’ve had about life, or about a person or about people in general.

2. Your sonnet must rhyme. There must be three sets of four lines and one set of two lines.

In the second quatrain you will use different words and it will rhyme like this: cdcd, for example, run, sky, sun, die.

In the third quatrain you will use different words again and it will rhyme like this: efef, for example, boy, man, joy, van.

You now have your three Shakespearean quatrains. That’s twelve lines. A sonnet always has fourteen lines. You need a final two and they are called a couplet. So far your sonnet has three quatrains. Once you have written them the sonnet needs a couplet. The rhyme pattern for that is gg. Again, words you haven’t used in the rhyming so far. An example is owl and fowl.

Your rhyme pattern will look like this: abab/ cdcd/efef/gg Simple, isn’t it?

3. Your sonnet must have a metrical pattern. It must be written in iambic pentameter. That means that you must use iambus.

and finally explain your sonnet about who or what
