Do Not Drown

Sonnet I had to make for class. About the world.

The world can be full of unhappiness,

And sometimes you feel as you will drown.

Some problems will drive people to madness,

But you must learn in life to wear the crown.

 

Feelings as love can cause greatness in need,

While anger can bring out the worst in the world.

A forest can grow with only one seed.

People of the land are the greatest impearl.

 

Destruction is made by people in grieve.

A heart unforgiving of people still living,

While their forgiveness has been taken by thief’s,

Making the world separate and riving.

 

But life is too short to live with regret.

Some things are best if you just forget.

 

Author's Note

My first sonnet.... I tried to keep it 10-11 Syllables. Not sure if its good, but I like it =]

Reviews

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

A profound look at the world.
It is almost like a manual for the
spirit...to keep it healthy.

A very accurate portrayal, yet at the same time a telling sonnet.

Life is to short.

You are absolutly right, some things are best

if you just forget.

Nice work

You show much wisdom in these words......

[Michael X]

this is a great poem especially the way you've employed the crown and the scope of life in the same stanza, it draws upon the idea of inspiration.
great job, keep it up.
