POEM STARTER

Write a Petrarchan Sonnet on the theme of Autumn.

A Petrarchan Sonnet has 14 lines; the first 8 must have a rhyme scheme ABBAABBA, the last 6 can have variable rhymes, but are normally split into 2 sets of 3 lines.

Inspired

A chilling breeze, falling leaves,

The first whisper of new wonder.

Orange and red flutter as I ponder,

Of fantasy and novel dreams.

Nothing is as it seems,

As I think through mighty thunder.

A fresh idea, one after another,

When rain starts running off the eaves.


This time is special every year.

A blessed change in atmosphere.

So rare to have a vision so clear.


Why can’t I have this every day?

Oh well, I guess it’s best that way

Creative here in autumns sway.
